In this study, Sc concentration dependence of ScxAl1-xN /AlN /poly-crystalline diamond /Si surface acoustic wave (SAW) characteristics at high Sc from 23.8 to 44.3 %was investigated by fabricating one-port SAW resonator at high frequency. 3.8 GHz one-port resonator fabricated on Sc0.43Al0.57N showed an excellent performance of electro-mechanical coupling coefficient (K2) as high as 6.34% for 2nd mode Sezawa wave, which enables a wide bandwidth in high frequency applications. The temperature coefficient of frequency was approximately -40 ~ -50 ppm/deg for the device fabricated with Sc concentration of 42.9%. This is smaller value compared to conventional high K2 bulk materials such as LiNbO3. As the result, high K2 6.34% material system at higher Sc concentration of ScAlN/AlN/PCD found to be possible at high phase velocity of 7,000 m/s. Combined with the extremely high-power durability of diamond based device, high power durable wideband SAW device at high frequency can be expected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
