  • Abstract
    This paper discusses the mode of operation of certain partial height ferrite, Y-junction circulators. It is proposed that such devices operate in a turnstile fashion with modes propagating axially along the ferrite rod. A simple experiment on a 4-GHz circulator substantiates this proposal, and a millimeter-wave device operating in this manner is described.
