Nonlinear Acoustoelastic Interactions of Lamb Waves with LiNbO3 Films Deposited on Sapphire Substrates

Abstract:

The influence of a biasing electric field on the propagation of the lowest-order antisymmetrical a0 Lamb wave modes in a bi-layered piezoelectric plate is investigated in this paper. It is found that the velocity shifts for the a0 mode due to presence of the bias field on the 10- µm LiNbO3 film structure are comparable with those observed in surface acoustic waves and Lamb waves in LiNbO3 plates. The fractional change in phase velocity of the layered piezoelectric structure is a linear function of the biasing electric field and can be used in voltage sensors.
