Abstract

It has been shown that surface acoustic waves in some hexagonal crystals can include not only the waves outgoing from the surface into the bulk of the crystal but also the reflected waves, i.e., those coming from the bulk of an infinite single crystal. The outgoing and reflected waves decay exponentially with the distance from the surface. It has been found that the reflected wave can exist if the velocity of its propagation is below the critical value, which does not exist for some crystals. The numerical calculations have shown in what real hexagonal crystals the reflected wave can exist. The values of the critical velocity have been found for a number of hexagonal crystals.
