摘要

摘要 本研究使用密度泛函理论(DFT)研究了在 0 到 20 GPa 的不同外加压力下 AlScN 薄膜的结构、机械、压电和机电特性。这项研究的主要重点是探索通过压力引起的改性来优化表面声波 (SAW) 应用的 AlScN 薄膜的可行性。我们的研究结果揭示了两个重要成果。首先,我们观察到弹性常数 C33 随压力的变化而显著增加。这种增加意味着材料刚度的大幅提高,直接影响到薄膜内波的传播和速度。其次,与 0 GPa 时的 Al0.75Sc0.25N 相比,20 GPa 时的 Al0.75Sc0.25N 的压电常数 d33 明显提高了 68%。这种增强对材料的机电耦合特性有着深远的影响。这些结果凸显了利用外加压力调整 AlScN 薄膜压电响应的潜力,为提高基于声表面波的 AlScN 器件的性能提供了前景广阔的途径。

The Piezoelectricity of AlScN Thin Films under High-Pressure Regime

The Piezoelectricity of AlScN Thin Films under High-Pressure Regime

This study investigated the structural, mechanical, piezoelectric, and electromechanical properties of AlScN thin films using density functional theory (DFT) under varying levels of applied pressure, ranging from 0 to 20 GPa. The primary focus of this research is to explore the feasibility of optimizing AlScN thin films for surface acoustic wave (SAW) applications through pressure-induced modifications. Our findings reveal two significant outcomes. First, we observe a notable increase in the elastic constant C33 as a function of pressure. This increase signifies a substantial enhancement in material stiffness, directly influencing wave propagation and velocity within the thin films. Second, a remarkable 68% improvement in the piezoelectric constant, d33, is identified for Al0.75Sc0.25N at an applied pressure of 20 GPa compared to Al0.75Sc0.25N at 0 GPa. This enhancement has a profound impact on the electromechanical coupling characteristics of the material. These results underscore the potential for tuning the piezoelectric response of AlScN thin films using applied pressure, offering a promising avenue for enhancing the performance of SAW-based AlScN devices.
