Abstract

Nonreciprocal metamaterials using normally magnetized ferrite microstrip lines are reviewed, showing derivation of formula for the phase-shifting nonreciprocity based on the eigenmode solution in terms of the effective magnetization in ferrite and asymmetric boundary condition for the wave-guiding structures. Dispersion engineering of the nonreciprocity is also discussed for potential applications to leaky wave antennas with wide steering angles and reduced beam squint.
