Abstract
A group-arranged type unidirectional surface acoustic wave transducer, which includes, in combination, groups of interdigital electrodes wherein the center-to-center distance between the electrodes is made equal to an integral number of wavelengths plus a quarter wavelength and further groups of interdigital electrodes wherein the center-to-center distance between the electrodes is made equal to an integral number of wavelengths plus three quarter wavelengths. According to the present invention, there is also provided a unidirectional surface acoustic wave device which can be employed as a filter by changing the frequency-amplitude characteristic of the surface acoustic wave.
Claims3
A group-arranged type surface acoustic wave transducer including plural groups of two interdigital electrodes having an equal number of electrode finger pairs, connected 90.degree. out of phase with each other, and disposed in such a manner that the center-to-center distance therebetween is equal to an odd number of quarter wavelengths, wherein:
- the center-to-center distance between the interdigital electrodes in part of said plural groups is made to be equal to an integer number of wavelengths plus a quarter wavelength, and the center-to-center distance between the interdigital electrodes in the remaining groups is made to be equal to an integer number of wavelengths plus three quarter wavelengths.
