Summary:The existence of materials having a very low acoustic loss per wavelength, and the recent marked advances in the performance of transducers at microwave frequencies, suggest that it might prove possible to construct microwave components using acoustic waves. The main attraction of this possibility is seen to lie in the size reduction, by a factor of 10/sup 5/, which is implied.
