Modelling based on Spatial Impulse Response Model for Optimization of Inter Digital Transducers (SAW Sensors) for Non Destructive Testing

Résumé

This study deals with modelling SAW-IDT transducers for their optimization. These sensors are specifically developed to characterize properties of thin layers, coatings and functional surfaces. Among the methods of characterization, the ultrasonic methods using Rayleigh surface waves are particularly interesting because the propagation of these waves is close to the surface of material and the energy is concentrated within a layer under the surface of about one wavelength thick. In order to characterize these coatings and structures, it is necessary to work in high frequencies, this is why in this study, SAW-IDT sensors are realized for surface acoustic wave generation. For optimization of these SAW-IDT sensors, particularly their band-width, it is necessary to study various IDT configurations by varying the number of electrodes, dimensions of the electrodes, their shapes and spacings. Thus it is necessary to implement effective and rapid technique for modelling. The originality of this study is to develop simulation tools based on Spatial Impulse Response model. Therefore it will be possible to reduce considerably computing time and results are obtained in a few seconds, instead of several hours (or days) by using finite element method. In order to validate this method, theoretical and experimental results are compared with finite element method and Interferometric measurements. The results obtained show a good overall concordance and confirm effectiveness of suggested method.
