Current can also be classified as conduction, convection, and displacement current. The conduction current is the movement or flow of free electrons in a conductor due to an application of electric field. It is the ordered movement of electrons in the conductor. The convection current is the flow of charges (electrons and/or ions) in a fluid or in vacuum subjected to an electric field. Convection currents may also flow on conductor surfaces carrying distributions of free surface charges. Lastly, the displacement current; a quantity which first appeared in Maxwell’s equations, is defined in terms of the rate of change of electric displacement field (in a limited sense, also known as the field of electric flux density). It has an associated magnetic field just as actual currents do. It is not an electric current of moving charges but instead a time-varying electric field. In materials, there is also contribution toward the displacement current from the slight motion of bound charges or due to dielectric polarization caused by time-varying electric field.

Problem 3.8. When studying electric fields in matter, it is often convenient to work in terms of the electric displacement fieldD→=ε0E→+P→, where P→ is the polarisation density. For weak external fields, the polarisation density can be assumed to depend linearly on the electric field and therefore () Pi=ε0χjiEj,

In formula (1), Q is the normalized displacement field, is the normal vector of the structure surface; E is the electric field, D is the electric displacement field, and the subscripts and denote the components parallel and perpendicular to the structure surface, respectively. Then take the volume integral of the inner product of the E field and D field in the AO cavity. represents the relative permittivity difference between the structural material and the surrounding medium, which is the difference between silicon and air in this paper, and is the reciprocal difference of relative permittivity.

The finite-element modeling of piezoelectric material is well explained in [17–19]. The relation between the stress, strain, electric field, and electric displacement field in a stress-charge of a piezoelectric crystal is given by the piezoelectric linear constructive equations. They are governed by the continuum equation of motion, Maxwells equations under the quasi-static assumption, the strain-mechanical displacement relations and proper boundary conditions. In a homogeneous piezoelectric BT film, the stress component at each point depends on the applied electric field. The piezoelectric equations [20] in the time domain can be written in the following form:
