resonators. The open resonator is formed by a perfect electric conductor (PEC) sphere
coated by a gyroelectric spherical shell. We develop a surface-volume integral equation
(SVIE) method, in conjunction with Dini series expansion. An orthogonal set of Dini-type
spherical vector wave functions (SVWFs) is employed for the expansion of the field
quantities, and allows the reduction of the SVIE to an homogeneous algebraic linear system …
