Abstract—

The possibility of excitation and recording of longitudinal and transverse acoustic waves in an alumoittrium garnet crystal in the frequency range of 12–18 GHz using thin-film converters made of aluminum nitride and zinc oxide at room temperature was shown. As an electrodynamic system, single-stage quarter-wave and two-stage Chebyshev coaxial type aligners were used. It was found that the conversion coefficient at excitation of longitudinal and transverse waves is ~23 and 30 dB. The specific attenuation of longitudinal (22.2 dB/µs) and transverse (15.6 dB/µs) waves was estimated. It was shown that single-stage quarter-wave and two-stage Chebyshev aligners provided a bandwidth of 11 and 20%, respectively.
