Abstract:
:The paper presents the characteristics of vertically polarized surface waves generated in silicon substrate by acoustic coupling of bulk waves excited in a periodically patterned ZnO film on silicon. The finite element simulations are performed on the proposed patterned-ZnO/Si structure and vertically polarized modes in silicon are found to be dominant in the frequency dependent analysis. The generated modes in silicon are concentrated near the surface within a wavelength depth and exhibit surface wave properties. Dispersion curves of phase velocity and coupling coefficient for the surface modes are reported. The results indicate high electromechanical coupling coefficient of 6.4% as well as high phase velocity of 5332 m/s for the surface mode generated in silicon owing to the acoustic coupling of the first order bulk mode in ZnO pattern observed at ZnO height to wavelength ratio of 0.19.
