Resonance Frequency Dependence Of A1 Lamb Mode On The Pitch Of The Electrode Structure

Victor Plessky, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Seniz Esra Küçük, Soumya Yandrapalli

Dispersion of A1 Lamb mode near onset frequency is discussed. This mode is close to that used in XBAR devices. The typically used approximation is based on elliptic form of slowness curve and ignoring mode interaction is not valid for widely used materials ...

Attenuation of Lamb Modes and SH Waves near cut-off Frequencies

Victor Plessky, Soumya Yandrapalli

Near cut-off frequencies, the shear horizontal (SH) and Lamb modes in a platelet are created by a bulk acoustic wave bouncing up and down between the platelet sides in an almost vertical direction. The small inclination angle corresponds to slow drift of e ...
