Theory of Nonlinear s-Polarized Phonon-Polaritons in Multilayered Structures

A theory is presented for the dispersion relations of the nonlinear phonon-polaritons arising when phonons are coupled to the electromagnetic waves in multilayered structures of nonlinear materials. The calculations are applied to a multilayered structure consisting of a thin film surrounded by semi-infinite bounding media where each layer may have a frequency dependent dielectric function and ...

Structures in Anisotropic Multilayered Media

Applying the concept of spectral domain representation, the moment method or the point-matching procedure and Green's function theory, a unified approach for the computation of the static capacitance of single, coupled and comb-like metallic structures in anisotropic multilayered media is presented. The media can be electrically shielded on one or both sides. The geometry of the parallel strips...

Defect Modes in Multilayered Piezoelectric Structures

Abstract—Propagation of electro-elastic waves in a piezoelectric waveguide with finite stacks and a defect layer is studied using a modified transfer matrix method. The dispersion equation for a periodic structure consisting of unit cells made up from two piezoelectric materials with metallized interfaces is obtained. An analytical expression, for the transmission coefficient for a waveguide wi...

Plate modes in piezoelectric multilayered structures

2014 Recent experiments have shown that interdigital transducers can couple strongly to plate modes in piezoelectric composite membranes. In this paper the dispersive properties and the piezoelectric coupling (039403BD/03BD) to these plate modes are presented The various types of modes are identified and related to crystalline symmetry. Results are given for stiffened-shear modes in zinc oxide ...
