Zusammenfassung:A computer model of optical and surface acoustic wave modes in titanium indiffused Y-cut LiNbO(3) guiding structures is used to produce several graphs for the design of guided-wave acoustooptic devices with optimum interaction characteristics. The design concentrates on waveguide fabrication parameters in order to achieve the optimum acoustic frequency and the acoustooptic interaction bandwidth. The optimum acoustic frequency for a given value of Ti film thickness and diffusion depth is defined as the frequency causing the maximum value of the overlap integral
