Abstract
An improved surface acoustic wave device includes a film of a magnetostrictive material disposed on a substrate and spaced apart input and output transducer elements disposed on the film. The input element causes horizontally polarized shear waves to propagate along the film via the magnetostriction of the film. The shear waves propagating along the film are received by the output transducer element. The SAW device can be integrated on a microelectronic circuit useable in single chip radio frequency applications.
