Abstract

In this study. we propose a wide bandwidth surface acoustic wave (SAW) motor by design of Inter Digital Transducer (IDT). SAW motor has several benefits compared with preexisted actuator. But it has narrow bandwidth, which causes the lower performance. To widen the bandwidth, the change of IDT structure was proposed, which is slanted IDT and since function apodization. The frequency responses were compared original uniform IDT and changed IDT. And the time responses were compared original uniform IDT and changed IDT. As a result, the feasibility of wide bandwidth SAW motor was certified.
