With higher demand for sensor development, piezoelectric materials with advanced performance and wide availability draw more attention today. Accurate second-order material constants are necessary for modeling and mechanical design of sensors that make use of langanite (La3Ga5.5Nb0.5O14, LGN) crystals. We report here on room temperature LGN bulk acoustic wave (BAW) velocities obtained with reduced uncertainties using ultrasound measurements and taking advantage of the cross correlation signal processing technique, and a full set of LGN material constants extracted from the BAW velocity results. Our results compare favorably with prior results assessed as using a reliable measurement technique, and differ in expected fashion from other results based on techniques that do not address a known weakness in the measurement technique.
