In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the application is as follows: a quasi-two-dimensional planarization circulator/isolator is composed of a ferrite substrate, a microstrip radio frequency circuit and ferrite back metallization:

The higher the remanence ratio is, the smaller the loss is introduced by the non-uniform magnetization of the magnetic moment of the ferrite substrate of the device; the smaller the ferromagnetic resonance linewidth, the lower the magnetic loss of the device; the smaller the dielectric loss, the smaller the electrical loss of the device; the larger the coercivity, the smaller the influence of the environment on the device; according to the design principle of the microwave device, the dielectric constant is high, and the smaller the in-plane size of the device is; the microstrip radio frequency circuit comprises a central conductor, ports and microstrip lines, wherein the central conductor is in an equilateral triangle or a circle shape, the ports are Y-shaped three ports, the central conductor is connected with the ports through the microstrip lines with the same width, matching transformation is not needed, and the circuit design is simpler;

The application is based on ferrite made of hexagonal gyromagnetic material, and is matched with a special microstrip radio frequency circuit design to obtain a quasi-two-dimensional planarization circulator with remarkably reduced size, especially thick bottom. Compared with the traditional microstrip same-frequency circulator, the size and weight of the microstrip same-frequency circulator can be reduced by 90%, and the microstrip same-frequency circulator can be systematically integrated with a semiconductor device, so that miniaturization of a radar, communication and other receiving and transmitting ends is realized.
The port form can be GSG (group-signal-group), or can be a common microstrip line form; the device does not need to be externally provided with a permanent magnet; the ferrite needs to be oriented, the orientation direction is perpendicular to the surface of the substrate, the higher the orientation degree is, the better the two surfaces of the substrate need to be polished; the adhesion of the circuit can be improved after polishing, one surface of the device is a microstrip circuit, and the other surface is metalized and grounded, and the device is generally manufactured by a magnetron sputtering mode.
The device is designed in a high-field design.
As a preferable technical scheme: the ferrite residual magnetic ratio is more than or equal to 0.9, and the smaller the ferromagnetic resonance line width is, the better the ferrite residual magnetic ratio is.
Compared with the prior art, the application has the advantages that: the application uses the high anisotropic field of the low-loss hexagonal gyromagnetic material to replace externally-added magnetic steel, and combines a microstrip radio frequency circuit matched with the magnetic steel to realize the quasi-two-dimensional and planar of the circulator, thereby greatly reducing the size and weight of the device; compared with the existing same-frequency-band microstrip circulator/isolator, the size and weight of the device can be reduced by about 90%, the miniaturization, integration and low cost of a complete machine system are facilitated, and systematic integration with a semiconductor device can be realized.

The application will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Example 1:
referring to fig. 1, a quasi two-dimensional planarization circulator is composed of a ferrite substrate 1, a microstrip radio frequency circuit 2 and a ferrite back metallization 3, in this embodiment, only the matching structure of the material of the ferrite substrate 1 and the microstrip radio frequency circuit 2 is improved, and preferably both are improved at the same time, and compared with the original circulator, the ferrite back metallization 3 has no change:
in the embodiment, the ferrite is hexagonal M-shaped ferrite with low loss and high remanence ratio, and the main body is BaFe 12 O 19 The saturation magnetization intensity is 4000Gs, the remanence ratio is 0.9, the ferromagnetic resonance line width is 300Oe, the coercive force is about 2500Oe, the dielectric constant is 23, the dielectric loss is 0.005, and the orientation direction is the direction c; the ferrite substrate 1 is perpendicular to the orientation directionThe ferrite substrate 1 is polished on both sides, and in fig. 1, XY represents a two-dimensional coordinate axis;
in the embodiment, the device adopts a high-field design, and the microstrip radio frequency circuit adopts three ports; the central conductor adopts an equilateral triangle, the outer circle radius of the equilateral triangle is required to be matched with the frequency of the device design, and the radius is 0.35mm; the port and the center conductor are connected by microstrip lines of equal width, the width being 0.11mm.
In this embodiment, the device has an operating band in the Ka band and a device size of 3.5mm ×3.5mm×0.22mm.
In the embodiment, the working frequency band of the device is in the Ka band, the insertion loss is less than or equal to 1.0dB, the isolation is more than or equal to 15dB, and the bandwidth is more than or equal to 2GHz, as shown in figure 2.
Comparative example 1:
in this comparative example, the ferrite is hexagonal M-type ferrite, and its main body is BaFe 12 O 19 The residual magnetic ratio was made to be 0.88, the ferroresonance line width was 500Oe, and other parameters were the same as in example 1 by the adjustment of the conventional manufacturing process.
In the comparative example, the working frequency band of the device is in Ka band, the insertion loss is less than or equal to 1.5 and dB, the isolation is more than or equal to 15dB, the bandwidth is more than or equal to 1.5GHz, and the insertion loss and the bandwidth of the device are obviously deteriorated.
Comparative example 2:
in this comparative example, the ferrite was a hexagonal M-type ferrite having a low loss and a high remanence ratio, the device radius was 0.4mm, and the remaining parameters were the same as in example 1.
In the comparative example, the working frequency band of the device is in the Ka band, the insertion loss is less than or equal to 1.2dB, the isolation is more than or equal to 15dB, the bandwidth is more than or equal to 0.8GHz, the bandwidth of the device is obviously reduced, and the center frequency is shifted towards low frequency.

For the radius, a certain deviation of about 0.35mm can be realized, for example, 0.33mm,0.34mm and 0.36mm, but the corresponding center frequency has a certain deviation, meanwhile, the device performance is not good with the radius of 0.35mm, and 0.35mm is an optimal value under the condition that other parameters are unchanged.
It should be noted that, besides the ferrite material type, the microstrip radio frequency circuit structure is also an application point of the present application, and the conventional microstrip devices are all low-field design devices, and the circuit is completely different from the present application, so if the ferrite material of the present application is adopted, and meanwhile, the conventional low-field design circuit is adopted, the function of the device cannot be realized at all, because the ferrite material of the present application has a high anisotropy field, and the conventional microstrip device material does not have a high anisotropy field.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the application is not intended to be limiting, but rather is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and principles of the application.
