Abstract
An estimation methodology for amplitude from the fundamental to fourth-order harmonic composed of nonlinear surface acoustic waves on a LiNbO3 substrate with a 128° Y-X propagation axis was demonstrated. First, equations for estimation of amplitudes from diffracted light intensity were shown and then numerical simulations of main factors were carried out. Normalized diffraction light intensities due to components of nonlinear surface acoustic waves were measured and their amplitudes were obtained from measured values. Finally, the amplitude of the second harmonic propagating on a gold thin film of about 50 nm thickness was estimated. It was found that the amplitude of the second harmonic increased continuously from 0.8 to 2.0 A with propagation distance in the thin film.
