The area of microwave magnetics is experiencing rapid growth and is seen as strategically important. There is a drive towards higher frequencies and the market needs nonlinear, nonreciprocal components. This book deals with the fundamental physical processes and devices for nonlinear microwave signal processing, attention being paid to device design and realisation. A main theme of the book is soliton excitation and modelling configurations for pulse compression.
Audience: Engineers and scientists as well as those in the microwave and optical industries interested in soliton devices, frequency modulation, and nonlinear microwave magnetics.
Eighteen proceedings papers providing a comprehensive portrait of the present and future applications in microwave and millimeter wave signal processing by means of magnetic, magnetooptic and dielectric media. The international group of physicists met in October of 1996 to analyze classical and novel nonlinear effects such as the problem of magnetization reversal, spin wave instabilities, solitons and chaos including macrosopic quantum tunneling of solitons in Ultrathin Films, and magneto-optic interaction in both non-linear effects and devices.
