Abstract :
The effect of beam steering on the design of microwave acoustic surface wave devices is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Transducer, pure mode axis misalignment and misalignment of the propagation-plane perpendicular can both add significantly to delay line insertion loss. Beam steering losses are particularly high on Y-cut, Z-propagating LiNbO 3.
