Abstract :
Planar waveguide structures (microstrip and slotlines) using thin film substrates having bianisotropic constitutive relationships are presented. Propagation characteristics of the waveguide structure when biased with a DC magnetic field show field and power displacement towards one edge of the planar waveguide. This nonreciprocal nature of bianisotropic materials shows a potential for applications in microwave devices.
