Recently, various surface acoustic wave devices that utilize surface acoustic waves propagating along the surface of an elastic body have been actively developed. Lithium niobate (
Piezoelectric single crystals such as LiNb○, ), piezoelectric ceramics such as zirconium titanate buttons (PZT), and piezoelectric thin films such as zinc oxide (ZnO) provided on non-piezoelectric substrates are known. Among these, lithium niobate has a large electromechanical coupling coefficient K and small surface wave propagation loss, but has the disadvantage of a large temperature coefficient. Due to the nature of the body, the higher the frequency, the greater the surface wave propagation loss. Furthermore, since the piezoelectric single crystals and piezoelectric ceramics described above have only a single function, their uses are limited, and it is difficult to manufacture devices with new functions by combining them with ICs.

Therefore, by forming other semiconductor elements on the silicon substrate 1, it becomes possible to realize a device with new functions.

くいという欠点がある。However, the surface acoustic wave device using the piezoelectric thin pancreas has a drawback that it does not operate efficiently because the electromechanical coupling coefficient K is smaller than that of the piezoelectric single crystal and piezoelectric ceramic. Furthermore, since the temperature coefficient is relatively large, it is difficult to apply it to devices where signal delay time is a problem.

作し得る表面弾性波素子が実現できる。With the above configuration, the silicon dioxide constituting the dielectric film 11 acts to cancel out the temperature coefficient of the element determined by the silicon substrate 5' and the zinc oxide film 6, so that the overall element It can have a small temperature coefficient. Furthermore, as another embodiment of the present invention, the comb-shaped electrodes can be provided on a silicon substrate or a dielectric film. Alternatively, a structure may be adopted in which a metal film is attached on the zinc oxide film facing the interdigitated electrode. In the examples in this text, a case is shown in which the piezoelectric axis of the zinc oxide film 6 is formed perpendicular to the silicon substrate 5', but a piezoelectric film whose inclination from the direction perpendicular to the silicon substrate 5' is approximately 10 degrees or less Almost the same characteristics can be obtained for the shaft. In addition, the cut surface of the silicon substrate 5' and the propagation axis for exciting surface acoustic waves are shifted by several degrees from the (1 1 0) plane, (100) plane, [001] axis direction, and [0 1 11 axis direction, respectively. It was found that almost the same characteristics can be obtained even when As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, a silicon substrate cut along a predetermined crystal plane is used as a substrate material, a dielectric film is formed on this silicon substrate, and at least the surface of this dielectric film is Forms a zinc oxide film,
Since the structure is such that electrodes are formed on the surface of this zinc oxide film, the electromechanical coupling coefficient can be made flexible and can be set to an arbitrary value. Also, by providing a dielectric film, the temperature coefficient can be reduced. Since the electromechanical coupling coefficient can be increased in this manner, the impedance of the surface acoustic wave transducer can be reduced and matching can be easily achieved, so that a surface acoustic wave element that can operate with high efficiency can be realized.

さらに温度係数が小さくなることで表面弾性波素子の安
定な動作を行わせることができる。Additionally, since the number of electrode pairs in the surface acoustic wave transducer can be reduced, the device can be made smaller and costs can be reduced. Furthermore, since the temperature coefficient is reduced, the surface acoustic wave element can operate stably.
