Diamond Configuration for Non-reciprocal Transmission

arXiv:1612.01836 · doi:10.1109/JQE.2017.2711246

Abstract

A system scheme is presented which allows non-reciprocal wave transmission or directional amplification of electromagnetic signals, using a boxed four-node method. Edges represent strong hopping interactions and diagonals stand for weak parametric interactions. Using careful optimization of values for design parameters, we are able to obtain non-reciprocity in excess of 12dB and 130dB for intrinsic and extrinsic configurations at identical input/output frequencies. For the directional amplification, an isolation as high as 40dB is demonstrated with forward/backward gains of 20dB. Cascading two such systems potentially can offer high isolations at high gains.
