This paper reports highly Bi-substituted LPE garnet films, Bi{sub 0.85}Lu{sub 2.15}FE{sub 5}O{sub 12} and Fi{sub 1.4}Y{sub 1.6}Fe{sub 5}O{sub 12}, with FMR linewidths as small as that of YIG, grown using only Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3} as a flux. Substitution of Al for FE causes a sharp increase in {Delta}H. The minimum values of {Delta}H obtained were 1.5 Oe for Bi{sub 0.85}Lu{sub 2.15}Fe{sub 5}O{sub 12} films and 0.73 Oe for Bi{sub 1.45}Y{sub 1.6}Fe{sub 5}O{sub 12} films, which are the smallest values reported to date for such heavily Bi-substituted garnet films. This may be ascribed to the fact that no Pb was included in the films. It was experimentally verified that MSSW propagation is possible for Bi{sub 0.85}Lu{sub 2.15}Fe{sub 5}O{sub 12} films. These films are very promising for MSW-based optical waveguide devices, since they have a specific Faraday rotation ten times larger than that of YIG, as well as a very small optical absorption coefficient at a wavelength of 1.3 {mu}m.
