Energy Storage and Dispersion of Surface Acoustic Waves Trapped in a Periodic Array of Mechanical Resonators [PDF]
It has been shown previously that surface acoustic waves can be efficiently trapped and slowed by steep ridges on a piezoelectric substrate, giving rise to two families of shear-horizontal and vertically polarized surface waves. The mechanisms of energy storage and dispersion are explored by using the finite element method to model surface acoustic ...
