Abstract

A non-reciprocal circuit element includes a microstrip TMn10 resonator (n is a positive integer) with a metal disk and branches projecting from the metal disk in a trigonally symmetric structure, and a ferrite magnetic body spontaneously magnetized and coaxially disposed on the microstrip TMn10 resonator. The metal disk and the branches are formed on a non-magnetic dielectric board having a ground conductor on its bottom face. The ferrite magnetic body is arranged so that a position of an electric field node matches to one of the branches.
