Accurate solutions of light propagations for two different directions are obtained by the asymmetrical input condition. As numerical examples, the performance of a waveguide-type optical isolator in MPCs designed by the eigenmode analyses is confirmed by using this method. Subsequently, an effective way to enhance the nonreciprocity of the optical isolator is shown., application/pdf}, pages = {1741--1747}, title = {A Novel Finite-Element Method For Nonreciprocal Magneto-Photonic Crystal Waveguides}, volume = {22}, year = {2004} }
