I want to create a timefield in touch ui dialog.

I can do it in classic ui using xtype="timefield".

Please suggest how can this output be returned in touch ui dialog

Do you just need timefield and not the complete datetime xtype ?

Otherwise,

Use the dialog converter tool to convert your dialog field.

download and install DCT from the link below.

Dialog Conversion Tool

This should be the resourceType in touch UI

I already tried datepicker, but it gives the date field.

But for my requirement I need only timefield.

You will have to write a custom timepicker for that. There is no out of the box timepicker available in touch ui

With Touch UI - you can write a custom resource type to meet you needs (if the ootb ones do not meet your needs) -- see this where we use a Color picker as an example -- Adobe Experience Manager Help | Creating a custom Experience Manager sling:resourceType for Touch UI

You can use the type property of the DatePicker Touch UI component to "time" to only use hours and minutes.

DatePicker — Granite UI 1.0 documentation

But, depending on what your goal you might run into issues - as this stores the property as a date and not a string, as the timefield does. This could cause issues if your trying to use both dialogs while moving authors over to touch ui. Then you would need to follow Scott's advice and create a custom Touch UI Granite Component.
