A plurality of surface acoustic wave resonators including a comb electrode and a grating reflector are coupled on a piezoelectric substrate. Dielectric film is formed on the surface of at least one surface acoustic wave resonator. No dielectric film is formed on the surface of at least one other surface acoustic wave resonator. Thus, a SAW filter where the insertion loss into a pass band is small, the steepness is sufficient, and the band is wide can be obtained.

A surface acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric element, an IDT electrode formed on the piezoelectric element for exciting a principal wave, a reflection film formed on the piezoelectric element having a higher reflectivity than the reflectivity of the piezoelectric element in a visible light wavelength region, and a light permeable dielectric layer formed on the piezoelectric element, at least a part of the IDT electrode, and the reflection film. Accordingly, when measuring the film thickness of the light permeable dielectric layer by light interference method, the reflected light from the reflection film having a higher reflectivity than the reflectivity of the piezoelectric element in a visible light wavelength region can be utilized, so that the film thickness can be measured more accurately.

A plurality of surface acoustic wave resonators (15through 20) including a comb electrode and a grating reflector are coupled on piezoelectric substrate (12). Dielectric film (14) is formed on the surface of at least one surface acoustic wave resonator, of surface acoustic wave resonators (15 through 20). No dielectric film (14) is formed on the surface of at least another surface acoustic wave resonator. Thus, an SAW filter where the insertion loss into a band is small, the steepness is sufficient, and the band is wide can be obtained.
摘要:
In a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device, such as a SAW resonator or a SAW filter, loss is minimized and steep characteristics are improved. IDT electrodes and a reflector are provided to a piezoelectric substrate cut out at a cut-angle which allows the substrate to excite a leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW). The IDT electrodes have a given film thickness and a given pitch “p” of finger-electrodes. A phase velocity of the SAW is reduced to slower than a phase velocity “vb”of a slow shear wave propagating on the piezoelectric substrate, and a resonance frequency “f” satisfies a relation of 2×p≦vb/f. This structure allows the use of a Rayleigh surface acoustic wave (RSAW) which does not produce propagation loss, and improving insertion-loss and steep characteristics from those of a conventional SAW device using the LSAW.
摘要:
In a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter including a substrate and an electrode formed on the substrate, the electrode includes a base layer, a first metal layer made of a metal consisting of Al or consisting mainly of Al, and having a given orientation relative to the substrate, a second layer for preventing the first metal layer from migration of Al atoms occurring in vertical to the substrate, and a third layer for adjusting a thickness of the layer. In this SAW filter having an arbitrary layer thickness, the layer hardly causes grain boundary diffusion, and grains of the layer can be made fine for effective resistance to stress. Thus, in this SAW filter, the migration of the Al atoms of the electrode that is associated with the SAW propagation-induced stress imposed on the electrode is inhibited. Accordingly, the filter exhibits excellent resistance against electric power.
