This paper presents results for a compact, local bandpass filter. We fabricated the filter using two different ferromagnetic materials, Fe and NiFe, in a microstrip geometry. The different values of saturation magnetization of the two ferromagnets give rise to different gyromagnetic resonance frequencies and provide a local bandpass region between them. The results show that the center frequency of the filter can be tuned over a wide range by adjusting the magnitude of the bias magnetic field. The filter’s bandwidth is almost constant (3.5±0.5GHz) over the entire tuning frequency range (6–26GHz). Theoretical calculations are in good agreement with the experimental results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
