Hybrid Modes in Surface Acoustic Wave Resonators
Abstract
This paper discusses basic behaviors and importance of hybrid modes which are caused by the energy conversion between Rayleigh and shear-horizontal surface acoustic waves (SAWs) in waveguide structures. First, basic properties of hybrid modes are given, and it is explained why this type of mode became important in recent years. Finally, temperature compensated SAW resonators using the SiO2/128°YX-LiNbO3structure is chosen as an example, and the suppression of hybrid modes and its impact to device performances are revealed.
