Equality of the Energy and Group Velocities of Bulk Acoustic Waves in Piezoelectric Media

Vincent Laude, Alexandre Reinhardt, and Abdelkrim Khelif

ABSTRACT The equality of the energy and group velocities of bulk acoustic waves in a lossless piezoelectric medium is demonstrated, with the energy velocity defined from the generalized energy density and the generalized Poynting vector.
