Abstract

The present paper reviews the propagation characteristics of the three magnetostatic wave-types that can exist in a ferrimagnetic film such as the commonly used epitaxial yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) film, viz., magnetostatic surface waves (MSSWs), magnetostatic forward volume waves (MSFVWs) and magnetostatic backward volume waves (MSBVWs). The pronounced inherent dispersiveness of these waves and methods of controlling or tailoring dispersion are discussed. Other propagation characteristics such as diffraction and propagation loss and the envelope distortion of a cw pulse in propagating through such a dispersive medium are briefly described.
