Abstract

A surface elastic wave filter in which Rayleigh waves experience only small attenuation and phase-shift, the number of radiating elements encountered by the surface wave during the wave propagation having a direction parallel to an axis xx through the filter, being restricted. The filter comprises at least one electromechanical transducer constituted by two metallic comb structures A and B whose teeth d.sub.A1, d.sub.A2, d.sub.A3 and d.sub.B1, d.sub.B2, d.sub.B3 are interdigitated and are arranged at either side of an axis yy in symmetrical fashion vis-a-vis a point M located upon said axis, at the center of the transducer. The filter can be used to the filtering of video-frequency signals in television circuits.
