Earlier, in 2019 by using a three dimensional (3D) finite element method (FEM) the possibility of the excitation and registration of such waves in the piezoelectric plates was theoretically shown. In this paper the set of the acoustically isolated interdigital transducers (IDTs) with the different spatial periods for excitation and registration of the evanescent acoustic wave in Y-cut X-propagation direction of lithium niobate (LiNbO3) plate was specifically calculated and produced. As a result, the possibility to excite and register the evanescent acoustic wave in the piezoelectric plates was experimentally proved for the first time. The evanescent nature of the registered wave has been established. The theoretical results turned out to be in a good agreement with the experimental ones. The influence of an infinitely thin layer with arbitrary conductivity placed on a plate surface was also investigated. It has been shown that the frequency region of an evanescent acoustic wave existence is very sensitive to the changes of the electrical boundary conditions. The results obtained may be used for the development of the method of the analysis of thin films electric properties based on the study of evanescent waves.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21062238","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,23]],"date-time":"2021-03-23T23:59:41Z","timestamp":1616543981000},"page":"2238","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["The Experimental Registration of the Evanescent Acoustic Wave in YX LiNbO3 Plate"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8854-6080","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrey","family":"Smirnov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, 125009 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1859-0673","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Boris","family":"Zaitsev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, Saratov Branch, 410019 Saratov, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1743-170X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrey","family":"Teplykh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, Saratov Branch, 410019 Saratov, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ilya","family":"Nedospasov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, 125009 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Egor","family":"Golovanov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, 125009 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zheng-hua","family":"Qian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Mechanics and Control of Mechanical Structures, College of Aerospace Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautic and Astronautic, Nanjing 210016, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Mechanics and Control of Mechanical Structures, College of Aerospace Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautic and Astronautic, Nanjing 210016, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1564-7179","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Iren","family":"Kuznetsova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kotelnikov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics of RAS, 125009 Moscow, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Auld, B.A. (1973).
