An acoustic wave device comprising a body of material having two generally plane, parallel surfaces facing each other, means for launching a bulk acoustic standing wave system in the body between the two surfaces or for detecting such a standing wave system, at least one of the two surfaces having a shaped profile arranged to launch a wave having a component consisting of an interface wave on the boundary of the body and being derived from energy trapped in the said bulk standing wave system or to receive an interface wave developed on the boundary of the body and to convert at least part of it into a bulk standing wave. |
