Abstract: A magnetostatic wave microwave device comprising a thin magnetostatic wave element and a conductor disposed on the top of said magnetostatic wave element. Because the width of an junction portion of the conductor is larger than the width of an input portion of the conductor, a large impedance change of the magnetostatic wave element at resonance can be obtained while maintaining a Q-value at a high level.

In this band-pass-filter, input and output electrodes each made up of finger electrodes and pad electrodes are formed on the substrate or thin film, a high-frequency signal is applied to the input electrode, to excite a magnetostatic wave in the thin film, the magnetostatic wave is reflected from parallel straight edges of the thin film, to generate resonance, and a high-frequency current excited by the magnetostatic wave is taken out by the output electrode.

Abstract: A resonance absorption-type microstrip line isolator including a ground conductor; a magnetic member provided on the ground conductor; and a central conductor provided on the magnetic member, portions of the magnetic member on both sides of the central conductor being magnetized oppositely. The magnetic member may be replaced by a composite member constituted by at least two magnetic members and at least one nonmagnetic dielectric member. Further, to achieve the miniaturization of the isolator, the central conductor may be in a meandering shape.

Abstract: An optical isolator comprising a cylindrical magnet magnetized in a direction parallel to the axis of rotational symmetry thereof, a Faraday rotator disposed in a center space of the cylindrical magnet, a pair of beam splitters capable of serving as a polarizer or an analyzer arranged on both sides of said Faraday rotator with inclination of 45.degree. relative to each other, characterized in that the outer diameter Do, the inner diameter Di and the length L of the cylindrical magnet are in the range defined by ##EQU1## where .alpha.=Do/Di.

Abstract: A chemical vapor deposition apparatus has a reactor divided into a reaction space and a purging space by a susceptor for supporting a wafer and a loading chamber communicated through a gate with the reactor. Exhaust units are communicated with the reactor and loading chamber, respectively, so that the pressures in the reactor and loading chamber may be reduced. The susceptor has a plurality of recesses to aid placing or scooping the water. Through a transparent wall on the side of the purging space, the susceptor is heated by a lamp unit disposed outside the transparent wall. The loading chamber includes a wafer transport mechanism for charging a wafer into the reactor or discharging a processed wafer from the reactor. An unprocessed wafer is loaded to the loading chamber from a cassette and the processed wafer is unloaded to the cassette. One or a small number of wafers are processed at one time. A uniform film is deposited with a high reproducibility.
