A lanthanum gallium niobate single crystal substrate, referred to as langanite, has a prescribed range of Euler angles for substrate and crystal orientation for improving signal processing for a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device. When a voltage is applied to an input interdigital transducer (IDT) of the SAW device, a surface acoustic wave is generated in the langanite piezoelectric substrate. The surface acoustic wave propagates in a direction generally perpendicular to electrodes of the IDT. The langanite crystal cut and wave propagation directions are defined which reduce insertion loss and frequency response distortion due to SAW transduction, diffraction, and beam steering, while achieving improved temperature stability SAW device as compared to other commonly used crystal substrates. A low power flow angle and reduced level of diffraction is also achieved.
