Abstract
⺠We present the design principles of a new class of compact magneto-optical circulators. ⺠The circulators consist of a multiring cavity butt-coupled to rib waveguides. ⺠We show how to maximize the magneto-optical effect in a uniformly magnetized cavity. ⺠We explore circulator operation in the presence of direct-pathway waveguide coupling. ⺠This coupling is shown to produce non-reciprocal Fano resonances in transmittance spectra.
