In some crystals the two transverse acoustic modes have exactly the same dispersion curve.

The transverse modes are classified into different types:

A drawback of this topology is that additional transverse resonant modes are possible along the λ/2 length of line formed by the two stubs together.

In these lasers, transverse modes with rectangular symmetry are formed.

For transverse modes, individual particles move perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.

Their analysis uncovered the transverse modes.

As an optical waveguide, the fiber supports one or more confined transverse modes by which light can propagate along the fiber.

Lattice dynamics have been investigated for longitudinal as well as transverse modes.

Waveguides are not capable of transmitting the transverse electromagnetic mode found in copper lines and must use some other mode.

More generally, this beam may be described as a superposition of transverse modes.
