Comparative Study of Traditional and Broadband Piston Mode Designs of A1-Mode Resonators on Lithium Niobate

This paper describes comparative study of traditional and broadband piston mode (BPM) designs applied to A
1
-mode resonators on lithium niobate. These two piston mode designs are applied of the A
1
-mode resonator, and achievable performances are compared. The result indicates that BPM design is superior to the traditional one.
