Abstract :
Interdigital transducers applied in surface acoustic wave devices have fingers (conducting strips) of varying lengths defining the transducer apodization. Most theoretical papers neglect finite fingers´ length in evaluation of the electric field in the transducer plane and the transducer´s capacitance. This letter presents the generalized Blotekjaer, Ingebrigtsen, and Skeie´s expansion analysis that may help in filling this gap in the transducer theory.
