The mathematical model of the problem is depicted by a set of partial differential equations of motion, Gauss equation in piezoelectric material and electron diffusion equation in semiconductor along with the boundary conditions to be satisfied at the piezoelectric-semiconductor interfaces. The secular equations describing the symmetric and asymmetric modes of wave propagation have been derived in compact form after obtaining the analytical expressions for various field quantities that govern the wave motion. The complex secular equation has been solved numerically using functional interaction method along with irreducible cardano method. The computer simulated results are obtained with the help of MATLAB software for 6 mm cadmium selenide (CdSe) piezoelectric material and n-type silicon (Si) semiconductor in respect of dispersion curve, attenuation and specific loss factor of energy dissipation for symmetric (sym) and asymmetric (asym) modes of wave propagation. The study may find applications in non-destructive testing, resonators, waveguides etc.展开更多

The formulation utilizes the appropriate wave field expansions, the classical method of images and the appropriate translational addition theorem to simulate the relevant boundary conditions for the given configuration. The associated acoustic field quantities such as the modal impedance matrix and the modal acoustic radiation force acting on the spherical surface are determined. The analytical results are illustrated with a numerical example in which the spherical surface, excited in vibrational modes of various orders, is immersed near an impervious rigid wall. The presented solution could eventually be used to validate those obtained by numerical approximation techniques.展开更多
