Abstract
A separated substrate acoustic charge transport device includes a surface acoustic wave (SAW) element fabricated on a piezoelectric substrate and an acoustic charge transport element fabricated on a separate semiconducting substrate. The substrates are separated by a small gap such that the evanescent electric field associated with the propagating SAW wave extends into a transport channel in the acoustic charge transport element to provide for longitudinal charge confinement and transport along the transport channel.
