Title: High Temperature Elastic Constants of Langatate from RUS Measurements up to 1100?C

Conference ·
OSTI ID:958878

This paper reports on the langatate (LGT) elastic constants and their temperature coefficients measured from room temperature (25degC) to 1100degC using resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS). The constants were extracted by iteratively fitting the resonant peaks with those calculated by Lagrangian mechanics at each temperature where the RUS measurements were taken. In addition, the RUS technique was used to extract the elastic and piezoelectric constants in the 25degC to 120degC temperature range. The extraction of LGT elastic constants up to 1100degC presented in this paper represents a critical step towards the design and fabrication of LGT acoustic wave devices for high temperature and harsh environment applications.
