  • Abstract
    This paper describes the thermal tuning of acoustic transmission enhancement through a phononic crystal slab (PCS), which is formed by ferroelectric ceramic Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 (BST) slab patterned with periodical array of rectangular gratings on one side. We theoretically investigate the normal incident transmission spectrum of the PCS in the temperature of 35°C and 45°C respectively, which are across Curie temperature (TC). A remarkable transmission peak originating from the excitation of A0 Lamb mode at frequency of 0.37 MHz changes to the frequency of 0.44 MHz over 10°C temperature range, which is due to the high thermal sensitivity of acoustic velocities in BST across TC. The shift of the transmission enhancement enables the proposed PCS promising as a temperature-tuned multi-frequency Lamb wave filter or switch.
