- quartz is a typical piezoelectric material, it undergoes ⁇ transition at 573 ° C. and loses its piezoelectricity, so it cannot be used in a high temperature environment.
- the acoustic velocity of the surface acoustic wave is about 2500 m / s, which is slower than other materials.
- the surface acoustic wave frequency is proportional to the sound speed and inversely proportional to the wavelength, which means that if the sound speed is slow, the surface acoustic wave frequency is lowered.

Therefore, there is a limit to the resolution when forming the comb-shaped electrode. Accordingly, the surface acoustic wave frequency that can be used for the surface acoustic wave device has an upper limit corresponding to the piezoelectric material.
- the surface acoustic wave frequency is also a frequency of electromagnetic wave communication for remote measurement. Therefore, if the frequency is low, the antenna for transmission and reception becomes large. This indicates that a small surface acoustic wave sensor excellent in handling cannot be obtained.
- the above-mentioned Langasite or Langate cannot use a band of 2 to 2.5 GHz or higher, so it is difficult to obtain a wireless sensor of practical size because it is limited in its use as a filter. .

- the matching circuit 14 is a circuit for performing electrical matching, that is, so-called impedance matching when energy is transferred to and from the excitation electrode 12 using an electromagnetic wave of 2.45 GHz.

Similarly to the matching circuit 14, it may be created by a wiring pattern formed on the mounting substrate 16.

- the piezoelectric substrate 10 is obtained by cutting a gehlenite single crystal ingot produced by, for example, the Czochralski method at an appropriate angle so that a desired surface acoustic wave propagation surface 11 is obtained.
- the gehlenite single crystal exhibits stable piezoelectric characteristics up to about 1200 ° C. and sufficiently withstands high temperatures.
- the acoustic velocity of the surface acoustic wave depends on the cut surface, as will be described later, but generally shows a high value of 3500 to 4100 m / s, which is the resolution when a general stepper such as an i-line stepper is used.
- a high frequency band of 2 to 2.5 GHz band or more can be used by using a comb electrode having a half wavelength of 365 nm.
- gehlenite are calcium, aluminum, silicon, and oxygen, and are composed of extremely common elements, so that inexpensive and stable supply is possible.
- the resonance frequency of the wireless temperature sensor 1 can be known by applying an alternating current of a predetermined frequency from the terminal 18 and then stopping the application of the alternating current and measuring the alternating frequency output from the terminal 18. Because.

In this case, the terminal 18 is unnecessary and may be omitted. If only wired sensing is possible, the antenna 15 and, in some cases, the matching circuit 14 may be omitted.

- the propagation angle ⁇ indicates its direction with the [100] direction being 0 ° and the counterclockwise direction being positive in the cut surface.
- the crystal axes indicated by X, Y, and Z are described by a right-handed system, and the direction of the right screw is assumed to be positive with respect to the rotation direction.
- the speed of sound in this case is approximately in the range of 3500 to 3600 m / s, has almost no propagation angle dependency, and shows a substantially constant value.
- the 45 ° Y plane is shown in FIG.
- the 45 ° Y plane is a plane obtained by rotating the (010) plane shown in the figure by 45 ° about the X axis in the illustrated direction.
- the 45 ° Z direction is a direction rotated by 45 ° in the direction shown in the drawing with the Z axis as the center in the YZ plane, and the propagation angle ⁇ is 45 ° Z as shown in the figure.
- the direction in the cut surface with the counterclockwise direction being positive with respect to the direction is shown.

- an almost constant sound speed can be obtained over a wide range and the loss is small even if the surface acoustic wave propagation direction is not strictly defined. Means. Therefore, in forming the piezoelectric substrate 10, it is not necessary to strictly consider the in-plane crystal orientation when creating the comb-shaped electrode, and a slight angle shift is allowed in this case. In addition, its manufacture is facilitated.

- the loss is reduced at the propagation angle at which the sound speed is a minimum value, but as the curvature at the minimum value is larger (in the graph, the width is narrower and shown as a sharp dent), It can be said that the surface acoustic wave is preferable in terms of loss because the surface acoustic wave concentrates on the propagation angle ⁇ at which the sound velocity has a minimum value. Therefore, when the propagation angle ⁇ is set to 0 °, it can be said that ⁇ is closer to 90 ° in terms of loss. Also, the sound speed is approximately 3610 m / s to 3710 m / s, which is higher than that in the case of the Langate shown by the curve (4) in FIG.

This is an index indicating that electric energy is efficiently converted into elastic strain energy as the value of is larger.
- the electromechanical coupling coefficient is large, the input electric energy is easily converted into elastic strain energy. Therefore, it is important that the electromechanical coupling coefficient is large in the surface acoustic wave device that requires quick response.
- a surface acoustic wave device is, for example, a bandpass filter or a sensor with a high sampling rate.
- the electromechanical coupling coefficient is not so important, and it is advantageous that the loss is small. Therefore, suitability as a surface acoustic wave device is determined by comprehensively considering the speed of sound, loss, and electromechanical coupling coefficient in accordance with the application.
- the magnitude of the electromechanical coupling coefficient is more important than the loss for the surface acoustic wave device that requires quick response. Desirably, about ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 80 °.
