The well-known relationship between the electromechanical coupling coefficient and the separation (σ) of resonance and antiresonance frequencies requires modification where several significant modes occur within a small frequency interval. An expression is given for the "true" values of σ (i.e. those which would arise if each mode existed alone) in terms of the many moded system. The analysis neglects mechanical and electrical losses.

ABSTRACTThe surface acoustic wave velocities, electromechanical coupling coefficients, and the spatial distributions of both elastic displacement and electric potential have been calculated for various configurations of gallium nitride and aluminum nitride. The electromechanical coupling coefficient values of 0.13 % in GaN and 0.29 % in AlN have been predicted. The maximum electromechanical coupling coefficient values of 0.24 % at Euler angles (0, 54°, 90°) in GaN and 1.08 % at (0, 53°, 90°) in AlN have been found. For GaN layer-on- sapphire substrate structures, the SAW velocity and electromechanical coupling coefficient have been calculated as functions of layer thickness and acoustic wavelength. The experimentally measured values of the surface acoustic wave velocity and electromechanical coupling coefficient are in satisfactory agreement with the calculation results.

Electromechanical coupling coefficient of cement-based piezoelectric composites affected by pozzolanic materials and poling field are investigated. Specimens, through a pressure approach, are manufactured by combining PZT powders and cement-based binder with the same volume fraction. Pozzolanic materials including fly ash, slag and silica fume replace 20% cement in the binder. Three poling fields are considered to induce piezoelectricity of 0-3 cement-based composites. Results show that electromechanical coupling coefficients do not have many fluctuations in terms of material ages for any cement-pozzolanic piezoelectric composites. With the same volumetric substitutes of pozzolanic materials, the electromechanical coupling coefficient with pozzolanic materials except fly ash is lower than that with plain cement, especially for silica fume having a 7.9% decrease. Raising poling field can increase electromechanical coupling coefficients. Polarization of cement-based piezoelectric composites containing silica fume in low poling fields such as 0.5kV/mm and 1kV/mm is not easy to complete.

The modified behavior of the phase transition temperatures (TO-T and/or TC) between orthorhombic (O), tetragonal (T) and cubic (C) that caused by doping Sb5+ in (Li0.052Na0.493K0.455)(Nb1-xSbx)O3 (LNKNSx) ceramics was reported in the present investigation. The results show that differing from the insensitive TO-T to the Sb5+ content, TC splits into two peaks TCI and TCII when doping Sb5+. The decreased TCI by raising x may be ascribed to the Sb-rich grains and the settled TCII round 480 °C resulting from the Sb-lack ones. The enhanced piezoelectric coefficient d33 value of 263 pC/N and planar mode electromechanical coupling coefficient kp value of 42.5% at x=0.052 can be attributed to the polymorphic phase boundary (PPB) behavior with an appropriate ratio between T and O phases without any second phase.

We report on the velocity V and the electromechanical coupling coefficient K2 of the first and the second leaky surface acoustic waves in various propagation directions in the a-plane AlN single-crystal. For c-propagation direction, the second leaky wave exhibited the velocity of 11016 m/s and K2 of 0.45%. For this direction, the temperature coefficient of frequency was found to be -30 ppm/°C. A near match of the velocities of the plane and leaky waves in the a-plane AlN allowed us to establish analytical relationships between the piezoelectric and elastic constants. A full set of elastic and piezoelectric constants of AlN has been evaluated by fitting the measured and calculated dependencies of velocities and electromechanical coupling coefficients on the propagation direction for both Rayleigh and leaky waves.
