Studies of non-reciprocal effects in planar near-millimeter waveguiding structure: Analysis of a 5-region canonical structure with 2 semiconducting slabs

We present here the first results of an analytical and numerical study of a five-region planar canonical structure which models non-reciprocal devices for the near-millimeter wave range using surface magnetoplasmon modes. The model includes two slabs of high quality semiconducting material, such as n-GaAs, independently magnetized parallel to the interfaces and perpendicular to the direction of propagation. This analysis in an extension of the one performed in reference 1. Emphasis is placed on a discussion of the results and we suggest directions for further research.
