Intensification of acoustic beams in crystals at mode conversion near total internal reflection

Geometrical conditions under which mode conversion occurs in a crystal near total internal reflection of an acoustic beam are found. In this case, the entire energy of an incident pump wave is spent on the excitation of a narrow intense reflected beam close in structure to an eigenmode. A consistent choice of orientations of the sagittal plane and surface that excludes the reflection of a parasitic wave of leakage is found.
