Abstract

The interaction of electroacoustic waves with a periodic domain structure formed in a tetragonal ferroelectric by a finite number of uniformly moving 180° domain walls is considered in the quasi-static approximation. It is established that the inclusion of the domain-wall motion leads to a significant modification of the reflectance spectra of electroacoustic waves according to the number, intensity, and location of the Bragg reflectance peaks.
