    Abstract: Undesired time-delayed and reduced-amplitude output signal components or ''''ghosts,'''' due to reflected surface waves arriving at the output transducer of an acousto-electric surface-wave filter, are inhibited or cancelled by providing an additional transducer suitably located to reflect compensating surface waves which arrive at either the input transducer or the output transducer in appropriate amplitude and phase to nullify the effect of the undesired surface waves. The amplitude of the compensating surface waves is controlled by the configuration of the additional transducer and the magnitude of its associated external load impedance.

    Abstract: A body of piezoelectric material propagates acoustic surface waves. Coupled to a surface of the body is a first transducer that launches the waves. Spaced on the same surface from the first device is a second transducer that responds to the launched waves. In order to reduce interference from reflections and increase efficiency, an end surface of the body is selectively located with respect to the adjacent transducer and is formed to define a particular angle with respect to the wave propagating surface. With the transducer elements in the form of interleaved combs of electrodes, absorption of reflections from an end surface is increased by effectively locating the end surface a precise fraction of an acoustic wavelength from the nearest comb electrode or tooth. Moreover, the response of the combined apparatus to signals being transmitted may be altered by changing either the angle that the end surface forms with respect to the propagating surface or by changing the spacing of the end surface from the transducer. The response also may be altered by depositing a different material on the wave propagating surface.

    Abstract: Acoustic-surface-wave transducers are spaced apart on the surface of a wave-propagating substrate. In response to an input signal, one transducer launches surface waves toward the other which responds thereto by developing an output signal. Without more, an undesired time-delayed output signal or ''''ghost'''' may be produced by reason of surface waves reflected back to the input transducer from the output transducer. In order to inhibit the development of ghosts, a plurality of surface discontinuities, such as grooves, are formed in the wave-propagating surface alongside the output transducer. These grooves also reflect surface waves and they are spaced from the input transducer by such a distance that surface waves reflected from the grooves reach one of the transducers in a predetermined time and phase relation with respect to an acoustic surface wave reflected by the output transducer to cause cancellation so that the development of ghosts is inhibited.

    Abstract: Undesired signal feed-through, due to inherent coupling between the input and output transducers of an acousto-electric surfacewave filter, is substantially attenuated by connecting two or more such filters in series and arranging the effective intertransducer spacings so that the sum of feed-through components in the different filters add to a minimum. The required effective spacings are obtained either by using different actual physical spacings of the transducer pairs in the filters, or by providing different acoustic wave propagation velocities in the different stages. In a special case wherein the system consists of three filters in series, time-delayed output signals, due to reflected surface waves, also are compensated.

    Abstract: A rectangular block of piezoelectric material serves as a filter for electric signals, presenting series resonance at a selected frequency between a pair of terminals. The block has a length and height substantially greater than its thickness and is poled in the direction of the thickness. A pair of electrodes on opposing faces of the block are coupled respectively to the terminals for developing a signal field transverse to the thickness direction and, in response to which, shear waves are propagated in the block. The thickness is one-half the shear wavelength. To prevent the development of spurious wave modes, the ratio of the height to the thickness is an odd integer.

    Abstract: A body of piezoelectric material propagates acoustic surface waves. For launching or absorbing those waves, an electrode array is coupled to a surface portion of the body. The array includes a bifilar coil comprising a pair of windings coiled over the surface. A source or load is coupled between one end of one winding and the remote end of the other winding, with the remaining ends of both windings coupled together. The spacing between adjacent turns of the windings is effectively one-half the wavelength of the acoustic waves at the operating frequency. The bifilar winding is shown either in a form where it is coiled around a cylinder or where it is nested concentrically on a surface. In one species, an input transducer launches waves in two directions around a cylinder, and an output transducer absorbs waves coming from both of the two directions. The bifilar coil contributes an inductive reactance to compensate the clamped capacitance of the transducer.

    Abstract: A body of piezoelectric material propagates acoustic surface waves. A first surface wave interaction device is actively coupled to that surface to interact with the waves. Spaced on the same surface from the first device is a second such interaction device. The interaction devices are segmented into a plurality of interjacent arrays of electrode elements and the spacing between successive electrode elements is equal to an integral multiple of one-half wavelength at the desired operating frequency. The arrays are electrically coupled in series and are disposed to effect cumulative interaction with the surface waves.

    Abstract: A body of piezoelectric material is capable of propagating acoustic surface waves and a first transducing device is coupled to a surface of the body to develop those waves. Spaced on the same surface from that first device is a second transducing device. The spacing is sufficiently small that crosstalk exists between the devices. To reduce the magnitude of that crosstalk, one or more of several different decoupling arrangements are included. These comprise the connection of diametrically opposite transducer electrodes to a common plane of reference potential, the connection of the mutually closest electrodes of the respective transducers to a plane of common reference potential, the disposition of one or more ground electrodes between the transducers and across the path of wave propagation, the development across the transducers of signals balanced with respect to such a plane, the physical shielding of the space generally above one of the transducers, the inclusion of a conductive shield on the surface opposite the wave-propagating surface and the formation of shielding channels in that surface opposite the wave-propagating surface. In addition, the wave propagation path advantageously is caused to be oriented at an angle relative to the end surfaces of the piezoelectric body in order to minimize reflected wave interference.
