Piezoelectric ZnO thin films were deposited on 7059 glass substrate by rf magnetron sputtering. The effects of deposition parameter, such as rf power, gas pressure and $O_{2}$/Ar gas ratio, on the crystallinity and electrical properties of the deposited ZnO thin films were studied. It was found that the deposition rate was higher than the previously reported values. ZnO films were suitable for SAW filter since a standard deviation of XRD (002) peak rocking curve was less than $6^{\circ}$. ZnO thin films, which were deposited at $O_{2}$/Ar ratio larger than 25%, showed high resistance. SAW filter was fabricated using ZnO film, of which thickness was 0.25 of the wavelength of the propatating surface acoustic wave. The measured frequency response was consistent with the calculated one. The SAW filter had center frequency 39.08 MHz, phase velocity 2501 m/sec and insertion loss 29 dB.

In this study, we propose a new optimization algorithm for a withdrawal weighted SAW transversal filter to satisfy given, specifications such as bandwidth, ripple, insertion loss, and sidelobe rejection level. An analysis tool for the withdrawal weighted filter has been produced by means of the delta function model, and has been applied to the design of a filter consisting of an uniform input IDT and a withdrawal weighted output IDT. This optimization algorithm consists of three routines, which eventually determines eight design parameters to satisfy the performance specifications. At the first step, the number of input and output IDT fingers and their geometrical size are determined by the insertion loss specification. At the next step, the bandwidth is controlled by the change of the IDT finger position. Finally, the sidelobe rejection level is modified through the add/skip technique of IDT fingers. The algorithm in this paper is distinct from conventional techniques in that it can simultaneously consider all the specifications such as bandwidth, ripple, sidelobe rejection level and insertion loss, and optimize the geometry of the withdrawal weighted SAW filter.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a cavity bandpass filter combined with a cross-coupling equalizer structure to enhance Group delay for 5G mobile network repeater, which can replace the SAW (Surface Acoustic Wave) type bandwidth filter used in the existing mobile communication system. Using the 3D EM simulation tool (HFSS), the resonance frequency, the coupling coefficient between resonators, and external quality coefficient between resonators were calculated. Based on this, a 12th bandpass filter was constructed to have attenuation characteristics of more than 20dB at the edge end of both sides of the band with a metal cavity structure with a frequency band of 3500MHz to 3600MHz and bandwidth of 97.85MHz. The designed bandpass filter satisfies the group delay time requirement for the 5G mobile communication standard and the in-band and out-band frequency responses.

본 논문에서는 비등방성 매질에서의 2차원적 회절현상을 수학적으로 모델링하였다. 비등방성 매질의 2차 포물선 근사법과 프레즈넬 근사법을 적용하기 위하여 전파방향에 따른 표면파 속도의 역수를 포물선으로 가정하였다. 128${\circ}$ Rotated $LiNbO_{3}$ 기판을 사용한 SAW IF Bandpass Filter에서의 회절현상을 모의 설계하여 그 결과를 회절현상이 없는 이상적인 경우와 비교하였다. 또한 전산화 모의 설계 결과와 실제로 제작된 SAW Filter 특성결과를 비교하여 $LiNbO_{3}$ 기판을 사용한 SAW Filter에서도 프레즈넬 근사법이 대체적으로 일치하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this part a new window function is used to design a SAW band pass filter. As an example, we selected a 99.9 MHz 20-percent bandwidth 20-dB insertion loss filter and fabricated a device on 128$^{\circ}$ X-rotated $LiNbO_3$. The theoretical predictions of a design sample are compared with the experimental data and are shown to be in good agreement over the operating range.

CSP(Chip Size Packaging) SAW Filter Package에 대해서, 유한요소해석(Finite Element Analysis) 컴퓨터 Simulation 프로그램인 ANSYS를 이용하여 Package의 온도 분포를 해석하였다. 신뢰성(reliability) Test 조건에서 Transient Thermal Simulation을 한 후, 조건을 변화시켜 가면서 Chip 내부 온도가 어떻게 변화하는지 알아보았다. Chip에 1.8 hour 동안 4W의 열원을 주고, 주위는 2$0^{\circ}C$ 자연대류로 놓고 Transient Thermal Simulation한 결과는 약 99$^{\circ}C$로, 허용 가능한 온도인 11$0^{\circ}C$보다 약 11$^{\circ}C$ 낮음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이는 실험값인 약 95$^{\circ}C$와 유사한 값을 나타내었다.

ZnO thin films on glass substrate were depostied by RF magnetron reactive sputter with various argon/oxygen gas ratios and substrate temperatures. Crystallinities, surface morphologies, chemical compositions, and electrical properties of the films were investigated by XRD, SEM, XPS and electrometer(keithley 617). All films showed a strong preferred orientation along the c-axis on glass substrate, and the chemical stoichiometry was obtained at Ar/O$_2$.=50/50. The propagation velocity of ZnO SAW filter was about 2,590 m/sec and insertion loss was a minimum value of abut -21dB.
