The present work deals with the propagation of interfacial surface waves in a composite consisting of homogeneous, transversely isotropic, piezoelectric halfspace underlying a thin layer of non-piezoelectric semiconductor material. The mathematical model of the problem is depicted by partial differe

β¦ Synopsis
The propagation of Love surface waves in the layered piezoelectric media was analyzed through the method of stiffness matrix. Firstly, the governing equations of motion for the piezoelectric media are derived on the basis of fundamental acoustic tensor. Secondly, the stiffness matrix for the surface waves in the piezoelectric media is presented. Solutions are obtained by the stiffness matrix method. Thirdly, numerical calculations are given for the ZnO/SiO 2 /Si structure. It is found that the middle layer SiO 2 affects the phase velocity. These results are useful in the surface acoustic wave area.

Love waves propagating in a layered structure with an elastic layer deposited on a piezoelectric substrate are analytically investigated. We present a general dispersion equation that describes the properties of Love waves in the structure. A detailed discussion regarding the dispersion equation is
