文摘The finite-difference time-domain （FDTD） method is proposed for analyzing the surface acoustic wave （SAW） propagation in two-dimensional （2D） piezoelectric phononic crystals （PCs） at radio frequency （RF）, and also experiments are established to demonstrate its analysis result of the PCs＇ band gaps.
