An enhanced algorithm for evaluation of surface waves
Abstract:
A procedure based on the Stroh formalism is presented that yields the approximation for the planar harmonic Green's matrix function for piezoelectric half-space that is valid in the vicinity of the surface, or pseudosurface, wave number. This approximation can be directly exploited in the spectral-theoretical analysis of surface acoustic wave devices. Otherwise, the known characterization of the surface wave supporting substrate can be immediately inferred from it, like the wave velocity, piezoelectric coupling coefficient, the wave damping in the case of leaky pseudosurface waves, and the corresponding surface displacement velocities.
