, causing in general
elliptical polarization. Hence, MSBVW will be linearly polarized, while MSSW modes will be
elliptically (or circularly) polarized. With this opportunity, an examination of expression (3.91)
for transverse magnetization shows that magnetostatic forward volume waves (MSFVW) are
also linearly polarized.
3.23.4 POLARIZATION OF MSSW MODES
For an analytical examination of the polarization of MSSW modes, let us rewrite the magnetic
potential expression in the ferrite slab region with the help of (3.113) and (3.149) as:
