General field theory treatment of quasioptical Faraday rotator for use as either an isolator or circulator is presented. The use of matrix methods in conjunction with Fourier‐transformation techniques greatly facilitates the formation of the boundary‐value problem, and provides a closed‐form representation of the electromagnetic field over the anisotropic region. Numerical results are presented and compared with those in Reference [2], and they agree with experiments. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
