摘要:
A SAW device has interdigital electrodes on a substrate, wherein the substrate is obtained by slicing a single crystal represented by the chemical formula: La3Ta0.5Ga5.5O14 (LTG) at a cut angle. The cut angle and the direction of propagation of SAW along the substrate are optimized so that the substrate may have a low SAW velocity and an increased electromechanical coupling constant. This enables to reduce the size of the SAW device and broaden the pass-band width thereof as a filter, providing satisfactory characteristics especially as a SAW filter of intermediate frequency for mobile communication terminals. The SAW device has a minimal loss since SAW energy concentrates in the propagation direction.

摘要:
A SAW mode sensor for sensing parameters such as temperature, pressure, and strain. The sensor is made of a piezoelectric crystal cut at selected angles, with an attached electrode layer with a signal receiver and signal transmitter. The signal receiver initiates a wave in the substrate which propagates in the substrate and the speed of the wave and amplitude of the wave is interpreted as the parameter being sensed.
摘要:
A lanthanum gallium tantalate single crystal substrate, referred to as langatate, has a prescribed range of Euler angles for substrate and crystal orientation for improving signal processing for a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device. When a voltage is applied to an input interdigital transducer (IDT) of the SAW device, a surface acoustic wave is generated in the langatate piezoelectric substrate. The surface acoustic wave propagates in a direction generally perpendicular to electrodes of the IDT. The langatate crystal cut and wave propagation directions are defined which reduce insertion loss and frequency response distortion due to SAW transduction, diffraction, and beam steering, while achieving improved temperature stability SAW device as compared to other commonly used crystal substrates. A low power flow angle and reduced level of diffraction is also achieved.
