Visualized patterns of the backward volume spin wave (BVSW) excited by arbitrarily oriented linear transducer in tangentially magnetized ferrite film are investigated experimentally in the plane of ferrite film for the case where the transducer length D is much larger than the wavelength λ0. Superdirected BVSW beam having zero angular width and minimal smearing of the beam energy along the film surface is observed experimentally. Thus, it is proved that such phenomenon as “superdirected propagation of the wave” exists in the nature.
