Langasite is a very promising material for resonators due to its good temperature behavior and high piezoelectric coupling, low acoustic loss, and high Q factor. The biasing effect for langasite resonators is crucial for resonator design. In this article, the resonant frequency shift of a thickness-mode langasite resonator is analyzed with respect to a direct current (DC) electric field applied in the thickness direction. The vibration modes of a thin langasite plate fully coated with an electrode are analyzed. The analysis is based on the theory for small fields superposed on a bias in electroelastic bodies and the first-order perturbation integral theory. The electroelastic effect of the resonator is analyzed by both analytical and finite-element methods. The complete set of nonlinear elastic, piezoelectric, dielectric permeability, and electrostrictive constants of langasite is used in the theoretical and numerical analysis. The sensitivity of electroelastic effect to nonlinear material constants is analyzed.

A novel methodology is introduced for the computation of stress-induced surface acoustic wave velocity shifts in piezoelectric resonators including quartz, lithium niobate and langasite resonators. The numerical framework has been verified through a comparative analysis of experimental and Finite Element Method (FEM) results for quartz resonators. This approach introduces the combined capabilities of COMSOL Multiphysics and MATLAB, facilitated by LiveLink, to systematically calculate all parameters contributing to the perturbation integral.

Exploration of compositional disorder using conventional diffraction-based techniques is challenging for systems containing isoelectronic ions possessing similar coherent neutron scattering lengths. Here, we show that a multinuclear solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) approach provides compelling insight into the Ga/Ge cation distribution and oxygen anion transport in a family of solid electrolytes with langasite structure and LaGaGeO composition.

In this paper, we report the simulation and fabrication of thickness-shear mode langasite resonators with stepped elliptical electrode designs to investigate their effects on energy trapping and suppression of spurious modes at elevated temperatures. Finite element analysis was conducted to analyze the design of a stepped elliptical electrode on a contoured langasite crystal. Based on the simulation findings, langasite resonators with stepped electrodes were fabricated, and their displacement profiles and frequency-temperature properties were characterized using network analysis and laser Doppler vibrometry.
