`idtpy` is a simple Python package for the design and modelling of Interdigital Transducers (IDTs).

IDTs are widely used in telecommunication industries as filters or delay lines. 
It is composed by surface metallic electrodes deposited on a piezoelectric substrate.
Applying an oscillating input signal, a surface acoustic wave (SAW) is generated thanks to the piezoelectric coupling.
The properties of this emitted SAW is determined by the design of the electrodes.
Changing the unit cell pattern allows for instance extension in the frequency band response (chirp IDT), unidirectional emission (Dart IDT) or generation of higher harmonics (Split 52 IDT).

The goal of `idtpy` is to become a user-friendly tool to work with IDTs, covering from the design process with physical parameters
to simple modelling of the transducer response.

## Installation
### Requirements

You need a working Python 3.8 installation to be able to use `idtpy`. 
We highly recommend installing Anaconda which takes care of installing Python and managing packages. 
Make sure to download a Python version equal or higher than 3.8.

### Dependencies:

* [Python](https://www.python.org/) (tested with 3.8)
* [NumPy](http://numpy.scipy.org/) - `conda install numpy`
* [Gdspy](https://gdspy.readthedocs.io/) (optional: to import gds files) - `pip install gdspy`
* [Matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/) (optional: to visualize imported polygons) - `conda install matplotlib`

### Linux / OS X / Windows

#### Option 1: Using [pip](https://docs.python.org/3/installing/)

Simply open Anaconda prompt and type:

```sh
pip install idtpy
```

#### Option 2: From the source code

1. Download the source from [github](https://github.com/Junliang-Wang/idtpy)
2. Open Anaconda prompt
3. Go to the directory of the `idtpy` project
4. Build/install by typing:

```sh
python setup.py install
```

## Examples
More examples can be found in the folder ['examples'](https://github.com/Junliang-Wang/idtpy/examples).

### Create an IDT
```python
from idtpy import designer
reg = designer.Regular(
    freq=1, # resonant frequency
    vsaw=1, # SAW speed
    Np=10, # number of periods
    w=30, # overlap width between opposite electrodes
    l=20, # vertical length after the overlap
    Nehp=1, # number of electrodes per half period. 1=single-finger, 2=double-finger...
    tfact=1, # thickness factor
)
```

### Preview it with matplotlib
```python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots(1)
reg.show(ax, color='k')
```

### Make it double finger easily
```python
reg = designer.Regular(
    freq=1, # resonant frequency
    vsaw=1, # SAW speed
    Np=10, # number of periods
    w=30, # overlap width between opposite electrodes
    l=20, # vertical length after the overlap
    Nehp=2, # number of electrodes per half period. 1=single-finger, 2=double-finger...
    tfact=1, # thickness factor
)
```

### Add dummy electrodes
```python
dummies = reg.dummies(gap=5)
reg.show(ax, color='k')
dummies.show(ax, color='r')
```

### Create a chirp IDT
```python
chirp = designer.ExpChirp(
    fmin=1, # minimum frequency
    fmax=4, # maximum frequency
    T=10, # IDT length in time
    vsaw=1,
    w=30, 
    l=20, 
    Nehp=2, 
    tfact=1,
)
```
![](readme_images/fig4_idt.png)

### Model the frequency response
```python
import numpy as np
from idtpy import model
freq = np.arange(1, 6, 0.001)

idt = model.ExpChirp(fmin=2,fmax=5,T=40,phi0=0,t0=0)
f_res = idt.freq_response(freq, apodized=False, db=True, shp=1).real

plt.plot(freq, f_res, 'k')
```

### Predict the SAW shape with an input voltage

```python
dt = 0.001
input_signal = model.ExpChirp(fmin=2,fmax=5,T=40)
ideal_wf = idt.apply_waveform(input_signal, dt)

time = np.arange(0, 80, dt)
t_res = ideal_wf.time_response(time).real

plt.plot(time, t_res, 'k')
```

### Split52 design
```python
split = designer.Split52(
    freq=0.5, 
    vsaw=1, 
    Np=5, 
    w=30, 
    l=20, 
    tfact=1,
)
```
![](readme_images/fig7_idt.png)

### Dart design
```python
dart = designer.Dart(
    freq=1, 
    vsaw=1, 
    Np=10, 
    w=30, 
    l=20, 
    tfact=1,
    direction='r',
)
```
