Abstract

In this study, we were interested in the dispersion of surface waves caused by the presence of a micrometric field of residual stress on the surface of an amorphous medium. We have shown that in relation to surface waves, a stressed structure like this is comparable to a layer on substrate type structure. The design and implementation of SAW-IDT MEMS sensors enabled quasi-monochromatic Rayleigh-type surface waves to be generated and the dispersion phenomenon to be studied over a wide range of frequencies for different superficial fields of residual stress. The thicknesses of the stressed cortical zones were estimated with good accuracy using an inverse method.
