Abstract

The directions of an external electric field at which extreme changes occur in the difference in the velocities of elastic waves propagating along the initial acoustic axis in a piezoelectric medium of arbitrary symmetry are theoretically determined. The problem of degeneracy in an external electric field is considered for elastic waves propagating in a given direction from the vicinity of an initial acoustic axis. The extreme electric fields and corresponding changes in the characteristics of transverse waves are calculated by the example of the behavior of acoustic axes in Bi12GeO20, Bi12SiO20, La3Ga5SiO14, and LiNbO3 crystals.
