Which consequence results when the cut-off frequency is exceeded in surface acoustic wave (SAW) device?

💡 Explanation

Substrate mode coupling loss increases because exceeding the cut-off frequency in a SAW device excites bulk acoustic waves; elastic energy is dissipated into the substrate via mode conversion, rather than surface propagation; therefore, signal loss increases rather than optimal capacitive effects.
