Full wave numerical study of electromagnetic wave
reflection from and transmission through an array of thin, perfect
conducting, planar strip complex-shaped elements placed on a
magnetized ferrite substrate is carried out. Our results show,
that the absorption level and the frequency band of the structure,
when the ferromagnetic resonance and a metal element resonance are
close in frequency, are larger than the corresponding
characteristics of the ferrite layer without metal elements. A
significant enhancement of the Faraday rotation has frequency
shift with respect to the main resonance. Both right-handed and
left-handed circular polarized incident waves interact effectively
with a metal array placed on ferrite substrate unlike the known
resonant interaction when only one kind (right- or left-handed) of
circular polarized waves interacts with the ferrite slab without
metal elements.
