Abstract :
This paper reviews the work made on edge guided waves (EGW) in the past five years. It is not comprehensive of all the results existing in the published literature, rather it concentrates on such selected topics as the radius of curvature of the guiding edge, magnetic, dielectric, ohmic losses, fringing field effects, inhomogeneous magnetic bias, dielectric loading of the guiding edge. Performance data of some EGW isolators and circulators are also discussed.
