Abstract

A circuit element utilizing a magnetostatic wave is disclosed which uses a magnetostatic-wave resonator having a structure wherein a thin YIG (yttrium iron garnet) film is formed on a non-magnetic substrate such as a GGG (gadolium gallium garnet) substrate and defining a wave propagation plane. In this resonator, at least a part of end faces of the YIG film are inclined at an angle of 2.degree. or more to a plane perpendicular to the wave propagation plane to suppress the generation of unnecessary spurious modes in a wide frequency range.
