ABSTRACT:
A single mode waveguide dispersive surface acoustic wave (SAW) delay line is formed by aligning an elongated input transducer, which has a pattern of interdigital electrode fingers which launches a wideband SAW, with a beam compressor that feeds an input waveguide. The input SAW passes down the waveguide to a 3 dB coupler which extracts one-half of the power of the incoming SAW and feeds it in the direction opposite to the input wave. Both portions of the SAW are passed to dispersive reflective arrays along a folded path. A series of additional couplers and reflective dispersive arrays that form the folded path serve to further delay the SAW until it reaches a beam expander at the output end which feeds the SAW to an output transducer that is constructed in a manner similar or analogous to the input transducer.
