An exact expression to calculate surface waves is derived for superlattices supposed for two kinds of layers to be rigidly stacked upon each other. The formulations are performed for bulk superlattices and superlattices on glass. The result of numerical calculations for two kinds of superlattices Cu/Al and Cu/Ag is compared with that obtained by use of the known effective elastic constants CM. Grimsditch, Phys. Rev. B. 31, 6818 (1985)1. The comparison clarifies the region in which the Grimsditch's expressions may be used}, pages = {33--54}, title = {Detailed Study of Elastic Constants and Surface Waves of Superlattices}, volume = {1}, year = {1997} }
