ABSTRACT:
An acoustic surface wave device is disclosed for generating an output signal that is the phase-conjugate of the input signal to the device. Disposed on the piezoelectric substrate is a first interdigital transducer for receiving a modulated input signal having a carrier center frequency f.sub.1 and for converting the input signal to an input acoustic wave. A semiconductor material is disposed over the surface of the piezoelectric substrate. A second interdigital transducer is disposed on the surface of the piezoelectric substrate between the first interdigital transducer and the semiconductor material. A standing wave at frequency f.sub.1 is generated by counterpropagating pump waves in the nonlinear acoustic wave interaction region in the area of the semiconductor material. The modulated input acoustic wave interacts with the counterpropagating pump waves in the nonlinear interaction region to generate an output signal on the output of the second interdigital transducer that is the phase-conjugate of the input signal.
