Book excerpt: The report describes the development of a novel electron-beam image-projection exposure apparatus termed the 'slit-lens' system that has been used to fabricate high-resolution patterns for use as microwave-frequency surface-acoustic-wave transducers. Further research efforts include the development of ancillary techniques for making: (1) the intermediate electron-transmission masks required by the slit-lens system, and (2) the thin films necessary for production of metallic patterns on piezoelectric substrates. Various high-frequency surface-wave-transducer structures have been fabricated and electrically tested. The new 'hybrid-grating' transducer has been produced and its performance compared to that of conventional interdigital transducers (at microwave frequencies). A theoretical analysis of the hybrid and grating transducer has been carried out and the input impedance of these transducers has been compared with that of a conventional interdigital structure. Particular attention was paid to the effect of parasitic capacitance on the performance of the various transducers. (Modified author abstract).
