      Hello.

      I have a question to make a circular polarization source. If you don't mind please help me.


      I checked the plane wave sources can make circular polarization source.

      Oh. I got how to get this.
      In this case, I must use magnetic dipole and electric dipole, with parallel direction!

      I am glad to know that you find the answer by your own. Circular polarization from dipoles are new concept recently which is not fully well defined uniquely as the same as in traditional concept which has a clear direction of travel. Please verify that it meets your expectation.
