摘要
A prototyped bandwidth-tunable filter consisting of SAW resonators and BaSrTiO3 (BST) varactors is discussed in this paper. In general, the BST varactors require high deposition temperature (>600 degrees C) in order to obtain good varactor performances. Thus special cared wafer integration process of BST varactors onto a 42 degrees YX-LiTaO3 wafer was newly developed to prevent performance deterioration in SAW resonators. The bandwidth-tunable filter composed of ten pieces of both surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonators and BST varactors on the 42 degrees YX-LiTaO3 substrate was successfully fabricated using the integration process. The measured center frequency of the filter is 1GHz, and the 3dB bandwidth is electrically tuned from 4.5 to 9.6MHz by adjusting a DC supply voltage from 0 to 10V.
