Shear horizontal mode surface acoustic wave resonator with ultra-high electromechanical coupling based on the X-cut LNOI acoustic platform
Shear horizontal surface acoustic wave resonators (SH-SAWRs) based on lithium niobate thin films on insulator (LNOI) platforms exhibit high electromechanical coupling and hold significant potential for applications in devices operating at frequencies exceeding gigahertz (GHz). This work presents the SH-SAWR with a resonance frequency of 2 GHz and high effective electromechanical coupling coefficient (keff2) of up to 42%. Finite element analysis (FEA) and theoretical studies were combined to optimize the structural parameters of the device for higher keff2 and larger quality (Q) factor, with the measured results effectively validating the proposed designs. Compared to devices without grating reflectors (GRs), the Q factor can be increased by over twofold with floating GRs and by threefold with grounded GRs. Our results show the outstanding performance of SAW resonators based on LNOI, promising for ultrawideband wireless communications.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
