Minimum-Loss Short Reflectors on 128° LiNbO3

Saku Lehtonen, Victor P. Plessky, Natacha Béreux, and Martti M. Salomaa

ABSTRACT We consider the interaction of surface acoustic waves (SAWs) with short electrode gratings encompassing only few electrodes on 128° lithium niobate (LiNbO3). The qualifications of the reflectors are evaluated by comparing the part of incident SAW energy scattered by the structure into the bulk to the energy reflected back as a SAW.
