We adapted the angular spectrum of plane waves (ASPW) method for simulating surface-acoustic wave (SAW) diffraction on anisotropic substrates. This approach offers a fast and precise tool for analyzing SAW devices with complex structures.

Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Materials Science
  • Electrical Engineering

Background:

  • Surface-acoustic waves (SAWs) are crucial for various electronic devices.
  • Simulating SAW diffraction on anisotropic materials like lithium niobate is complex.
  • Existing methods may lack efficiency or precision for intricate device geometries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To adapt the angular spectrum of plane waves (ASPW) decomposition for numerical simulations of SAW diffraction.
  • To develop and validate modified thin-element decomposition (TED) methods for anisotropic substrates.
  • To assess the utility of ASPW for analyzing practical SAW devices with lateral structural variations.

Main Methods:

  • Adaptation of the angular spectrum of plane waves (ASPW) decomposition.
