Abstract

Substrates of SAW filter are mainly single crystal such as LiNbO$_3$, LiTaO$_3$. However, fabrication of crystal is difficult and cost is very high. In this study, crystal was substituted for piezoelectric ceramics which has simple fabrication process. The same SAW filter mask was photolithographed on crystal(LiNbO$_3$) substrate and ceramic(PZT4, PZT5A and PZT8) substrate in order to compare experimental value with theoretical value. The difference of center frequency was only 3.7%. PZT8 showed good bandwidth properties. It is considered that PZT8 has higher mechanical quality factor and propagation velocity than PZT4, PTT5A.
