Abstract

This paper discusses the influence of displacement and patterning of phase shifters for piston mode operation of the temperature compensated surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator on SiO2/LiNbO3 structure. As the phase shifters, Cu metals placed on the top surface of SiO2 are considered. First, the conventional Cu stripes are chosen, and their displacement is considered from interdigital transducer (IDT) aperture edges. It is shown that achievable transverse mode suppression is almost identical when the stripe shape is adjusted for each case. Next, Cu dots are considered as patterned phase shifters. It is shown comparable transverse mode suppression is possible also for this case. However, relatively strong SAW lateral leakage occurs when they are placed above IDT fingers. These results indicate that location and pattern can be added as design parameters for the phase shifters on SiO2. It is favorable for further enhancement of total device performances.
