Power flow angles (PFAs) on a langasite (LGS) substrate with Euler angles of (0°, 138.5°, ψ), ψ=25.7 to 27.7° are investigated for slanted finger interdigital transducer (SFIT) surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters by an electrical and optical methods. In the electrical method, several tilted SFIT SAW filters with different tilt angles for (0°, 138.5°, ψ) LGS substrates were designed, and the frequency responses of the filters were measured. In the optical method, the PFAs were directly measured by optical probing for a parallel interdigital transducer (IDT) with wide propagation area on the substrate. As a result, a good correlation between electrical and optical measurements of the PFAs is obtained, but the calculated PFAs are slightly different from the measured PFAs. A good frequency response of a tilted 380 MHz SFIT SAW filter with an appropriate tilt angle corresponding to the PFA on the substrate is obtained even though the aperture is small.
The radiation patterns of bulk waves generated by an interdigital transducer and their reflection patterns at the bottom plane of a Y-cut Z-propagating LiNbO3 have been observed clearly on the crystal using a frequency-shift-holography method. The effects of polarization of the observing light of this method and the effect of roughing the bottom plane of the crystal have been studied.
Acoustic field analysis results of surface acoustic wave dispersive delay lines using inclined chirp IDTs on a Y-Z LiNbO 3 substrate are described. The calculated results are compared with optical measurements. The angular spectrum of the plane wave method is applied to calculation of the acoustic fields considering the anisotropy of the SAW velocity by using the polynomial approximation. Acoustic field propagating along the Z-axis of the substrate, which is the main beam excited by the inclined chirp IDT, shows asymmetric distribution between the +Z and −Z directions. Furthermore the SAW beam propagating in a slanted direction with an angle of +18 • from the Z axis to the X-axis is observed. It is described that the SAW beam propagating in a slanted direction is the first side lobe excited by the inclined chirp IDT. The acoustic field shows asymmetric distribution along the X-axis because of the asymmetric structure of the inclined chirp IDT. Finally, acoustic field of a two-IDT connected structure which consists of the same IDTs electrically connected in series is presented. The acoustic field of the two-IDT connected structure is calculated to be superposed onto the calculated result of the acoustic field exited by one IDT on the calculated result shifted along the X-axis. Two SAW beams excited by IDTs are observed. The distributions of the SAW beams are not in parallel. The calculated results show good agreement with the optical measurement results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
