An electrical inductor circuit element comprising an elongate electrical
conductor coupled magnetically with thin layers of magnetic material
extending along at least a part of the conductor above and below the
conductor. The aspect ratio of the thickness of each of the layers of
magnetic material to its lateral dimensions is between 0.001 and 0.5 and
is preferably between 0.01 and 0.1. This range of aspect ratio has a high
ferromagnetic resonance frequency.The inductor preferably includes
magnetic interconnections extending beside the conductor and
interconnecting the layers of magnetic material at positions where
magnetic flux generated by electrical current flowing along the conductor
is transverse to the layers.
