A new form of two-dimensional coupling-of-modes (2D-COM) equations considering power flow angle was proposed and verified experimentally. By adopting a wave vector relationship in elliptic approximation form, the parabolic 2D-COM equations were improved into an elliptic form which is applicable to the simulation of surface acoustic wave resonators considering power flow angle (PFA-SAWR). Combined the method with COMSOL PDE module, a complete simulation model for PFA-SAWR’s frequency response was established. Take the periodic grating structure on the AT-22° quartz substrate (PFA ≈5.4°) as an example, a case analysis was carried out based on this new simulation model. The accuracy of the model was confirmed by comparing the results of 3D FEM analysis. Then, in the experiment part, a PFA-SAWR on the AT-22° quartz substrate was fabricated and measured, the frequency responses obtained by simulation and experiments are in good agreement. Finally, a new resonator structure which can effectively suppress the transverse modes and improve the Q value of resonators was introduced. This new simulation model provides an effective technique for accurately analyzing and designing PFA-SAWRs.
To accurately calculate the response of surface acoustic wave sensors with non-uniformly distributed loads, a two-dimensional segmentation method suitable for various load distribution patterns was established with the idea of channelization. In this method, the sensitive area of the sensor was divided into several channels in the direction of the aperture, and each channel was cut apart into several cells along the direction of acoustic wave propagation. Finally, the two-dimensional analysis of the non-uniform distributed load was completed since each cell was analyzed and cascaded. A Rayleigh surface acoustic wave (R-SAW) sensor was used to simulate and experiment in this paper. The results showed that the responses of SAW sensors under loads with the non-uniform distributions were simulated accurately by using a two-dimensional segmentation method. (c) 2021 Elsevier B.V.

In the detection of small size mass loading, such as a single cell, a micro droplet or an aerosol particle, the sensors with longitudinally coupled surface acoustic wave resonator (LC-SAWR) structure can hardly avoid waveform distortions. The relative size of mass loading to the sensitive surface of the detector is the main factor affecting the response of LC-SAWR. The smaller the relative size, the worse the waveform distortion. In order to avoid influences from the mass loading's size, in this paper, a transversely coupled SAW resonator (TC-SAWR) was proposed in order to achieve high performance in sensing small size mass loadings. For the design and simulation of TC-SAWR, the two-dimensional coupling of model (2D-COM) theory and finite element method (FEM) were used in this work. In the experiment, SiO2 was deposited on the sensor's surface as a small size mass loading. The results from simulation and experiment mutually demonstrated the advantage of TC-SAWR to conquer waveform distortion in the detection of small size mass loading.
Introduction: A novel analytical method using fast gas chromatography combined with surface acoustic wave sensor (GC-SAW) was developed for rapid determination of the pharmacological volatiles of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.). Methods: The volatile compounds in 20 turmeric samples, collected from different parts and different origins, were assessed by the fast GC-SAW. In addition, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was employed to confirm the chemical composition of the main volatiles. The digital fingerprint of turmeric was established and analysed by principal component analysis and cluster analysis. Results: Curcumene (9.1%), β-sesquiphellandrene (5.1%) and ar-turmerone (69.63%) were confirmed as the main pharmacological volatiles of turmeric. The content of ar-turmerone in lateral rhizome turmeric was significantly higher than that of top rhizome and ungrouped turmeric. The contents of curcumene and β-sesquiphellandrene in top rhizome turmeric were higher than those in lateral and ungrouped turmeric. The 20 turmeric samples were divided into four categories, which reflected the quality characteristics of the turmeric from different parts and origins. Conclusion: The GC-SAW method can rapidly and accurately detect pharmacologically volatiles of turmeric, and it can be used in the quality control of turmeric.
This research proposed the design, fabrication, and experiments of a surface acoustic wave resonator (SAWR)-based multi-sized particles monitor. A wide range selection and monitoring of large coarse particles (LCP), inhalable particles (PM10), and fine inhalable particles (PM2.5) were achieved by combining high-performance 311 MHz SAWRs and a specially designed cascade impactor. This paper calculated the normalized sensitivity distribution of the chip to the mass loading effect, extracted the optimal response area for particle attachment, analyzed the influence of the distance between nozzle and chip surface on the particle distribution, and evaluated the collection efficiency of the specially designed 2 LPM (L/min) impactor through computational fluid dynamics simulation software. An experimental platform was built to conduct the response experiment of the sensor to particle-containing gas generated by the combustion of leaf fragments and repeatability test. We verified the results of the particle diameter captured at each stage. This research suggests that the sensor’s response had good linearity and repeatability, while the particles collected on the surface of the SAWR in each impactor stage met the desired diameter, observed through a microscope.

By using the PDE mode of FEM software, four SAW resonators with the loads in different distribution patterns were modeled. Also, we fabricated and measured a series of SAW resonators accordingly. The results showed that the 2-D COM theory combined with the finite element method was able to simulate the transverse modes of the device and the disturbance of the mass loading on the transverse mode effectively, making the simulation more accurate.

In this paper, the effect of annealing temperatures on electrode surface roughness and on sensitivity of the SAW detectors in SAW GCS(surface acoustic wave gas Chromatography system) were studied. The electrode surface roughness of the surface acoustic wave (SAW) detector was changed by annealing at different temperatures. The annealing temperatures of 25°C, 200°C and 300°C were chosen for the experiment, and we got that 200°C had the largest electrode roughness. Finally, the SAW detectors obtained at different above mentioned annealing temperatures were used in SAW GC system to detect dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). The responses have shown that with the increase of annealing temperature, the sensitivity improved obviously for DMMP.

As the interdigital transducer(IDTs) material in the SAW gas detector combined with the gas chromatography is vulnerable to the corrosion of the gas environment, this paper studied the influence of the Al/Au double-layer electrode structure on its sensitivity when the thickness of the Au is 0.04μm and the thickness of the Al increases continuously. The finite element software COMSOL was used to simulate the oscillating SAW gas detector in mode 1-3, and the classical coupling of modes (COM) theory was combined to extract the optimized structural parameters. Simulation results show that when the thickness of aluminum is approximately 3-4 times that of gold, the performance of the sensor is the best.

Design, fabrication and experiments of a miniature particulate matter (PM) 2.5 sensor based on the surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology were proposed. The sensor contains a virtual impactor (VI) for particle separation, a thermophoretic precipitator (TP) for PM2.5 capture and a SAW sensor chip for PM2.5 mass detection. The separation performance of the VI was evaluated by using the finite element method (FEM) model and the PM2.5 deposition characteristic in the TP was obtained by analyzing the thermophoretic theory. Employing the coupling-of-modes (COM) model, a low loss and high-quality SAW resonator was designed. By virtue of the micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) technology and semiconductor technology, the SAW based PM2.5 sensor detecting probe was fabricated. Then, combining a dual-port SAW oscillator and an air sampler, the experimental platform was set up. Exposing the PM2.5 sensor to the polystyrene latex (PSL) particles in a chamber, the sensor performance was evaluated. The results show that by detecting the PSL particles with a certain diameter of 2 μm, the response of the SAW based PM2.5 sensor is linear, and in accordance with the response of the light scattering based PM2.5 monitor. The developed SAW based PM2.5 sensor has great potential for the application of airborne particle detection.
