Definitions
- the present invention relates to an acoustic wave device having a support substrate made of silicon, an acoustic wave device package, a multiplexer, a high-frequency front-end circuit, and a communication device.
- Patent Document 1 discloses an acoustic wave device in which an organic adhesive layer and a piezoelectric substrate are stacked on a support substrate made of silicon. And heat resistance is improved by joining on the (111) surface of the support substrate comprised with a silicon
- Patent Document 1 depending on the crystal orientation of the support substrate made of silicon, the sound speed of the bulk wave propagating in the support substrate may change, and the frequency position of the higher-order mode propagating in the support substrate may vary.
- the frequency position of the higher order mode propagating in the support substrate varies, there is a problem that the possibility that a response due to the higher order mode occurs at an undesired frequency position increases.
- the present invention includes a support substrate made of silicon, a piezoelectric body provided directly or indirectly on the support substrate, having a pair of opposing main surfaces, and at least one of the piezoelectric bodies
- An IDT electrode provided directly or indirectly on the main surface and having a wavelength determined by an electrode finger pitch of ⁇ , and the following formula (
- the acoustic wave device according to 1) has a sound velocity V Si of 5500 m / sec or more.
- V Si (V 1 ) 1/2 (m / sec) (1)
- V 1 in equation (1) is the solution of equation (2) below.
- Ax 3 + Bx 2 + Cx + D 0
- Ax 3 + Bx 2 + Cx + D 0
- A, B, C and D are values represented by the following formulas (2A) to (2D), respectively.
- ⁇ is 2.331 (g / cm 3 ).
- L 11 , L 22 , L 33 , L 21 , L 31 and L 23 are values represented by the following formulas (3A) to (3F).

- L 21 (c 12 + c 44 ) ⁇ a 2 ⁇ a 1
- L 31 (c 12 + c 44) ⁇ a 1 ⁇ a 3 ...
- L 23 (c 44 + c 12) ⁇ a 3 ⁇ a 2 ... Equation (3F)
- a 1 , a 2 and a 3 are values represented by the following formulas (4A) to (4C).
- a 1 cos ( ⁇ ) ⁇ cos ( ⁇ ) ⁇ sin ( ⁇ ) ⁇ cos ( ⁇ ) ⁇ sin ( ⁇ ) (4A)
- a 2 sin ( ⁇ ) ⁇ cos ( ⁇ ) + cos ( ⁇ ) ⁇ cos ( ⁇ ) ⁇ sin ( ⁇ )
- a 3 sin ( ⁇ ) ⁇ sin ( ⁇ ) Equation (4C)
- ⁇ , ⁇ , and ⁇ in the equations (4A) to (4C) are ⁇ , ⁇ , and ⁇ in the crystal orientation ( ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ ) of the support substrate.
- the V 1 in the equation (1) is the smallest value among the solutions V 1 , V 2 , and V 3 of the equation (2). Thereby, the frequency position of the higher-order mode can be more effectively stabilized.
- the film thickness of the piezoelectric body is 3.5 ⁇ or less.
- the energy concentration of the elastic wave can be increased and the loss can be reduced.
- the film thickness of the piezoelectric body is 2.5 ⁇ or less.
- the film thickness of the piezoelectric body is 1.5 ⁇ or less.
- the electromechanical coupling coefficient can be easily adjusted by setting the film thickness of the piezoelectric body to 1.5 ⁇ or less.
- the film thickness of the piezoelectric body is 0.5 ⁇ or less.
- the electromechanical coupling coefficient can be easily adjusted in a wide range.
- the piezoelectric body is made of lithium tantalate.
- the acoustic velocity of the bulk wave propagating through the support substrate is higher than the acoustic velocity of the elastic wave propagating through the piezoelectric body.
- the Q value can be increased.
- the sound velocity of the bulk wave provided between the support substrate and the piezoelectric body and propagating through the bulk wave is the sound velocity of the elastic wave propagating through the piezoelectric member.
- a low sound velocity material layer made of a lower low sound velocity material is further provided.
- the elastic wave can be effectively confined in the piezoelectric body.
- the low sound velocity material layer By arranging the low sound velocity material layer, the sound velocity of the elastic wave is lowered.
- the energy of the elastic wave is concentrated in an essentially low sound velocity medium.

A broken line indicates the pass characteristic of the second bandpass filter.
- the frequency at which higher order modes are generated is an important item in the design of multiplexers. Therefore, it is required that the frequency position where the higher order mode is generated is stable. On the other hand, as described above, the frequency at which the higher-order mode is generated can be very stabilized by setting the slowest sound speed of bulk waves propagating in the support substrate to 5500 m / second or more. Therefore, if the above-described elastic wave device 1 is used, the frequency position where the higher-order mode of the elastic wave device used in the first bandpass filter 22 is generated can be easily stabilized in the multiplexer 21. . In addition, it is easy to reliably remove the frequency position where the higher order mode is generated from the pass band B of the second band pass filter 23.
- FIG. 9 shows an example where the higher-order mode generated by the filter forming the pass band A avoids the pass band B.
- the attenuation in the pass band A is sufficiently large in the pass band B, most of the necessary high-frequency signals can be passed through the pass band B.
- the higher-order mode generated by the filter that forms the pass band A overlaps with the pass band B as shown in FIG. 10, a part of the necessary high-frequency signal flows toward the filter that forms the pass band A. End up.
- a loss occurs at the same frequency position as the higher order mode, and the filter characteristics are deteriorated.

- FIG. 12 shows that in the structure in which the piezoelectric body is laminated on the support substrate made of silicon, the slowest sound speed of the bulk wave propagating through the support substrate is lower than 5500 m / sec. It is a figure which shows the energy distribution of the higher mode in the case.
- the broken line indicates the energy intensity of the higher mode.
- the higher-order mode is confined to a portion above the support substrate 31. That is, it is confined to the piezoelectric body 32. Therefore, the higher-order mode hardly propagates in the support substrate 31. Therefore, the higher-order mode is not easily affected by the slowest transverse wave sound speed among the sound speeds of bulk waves propagating in the support substrate 31.
- the higher-order mode is not only in the piezoelectric body but also in the support. It propagates with considerable energy intensity even in the substrate. Therefore, the frequency position where the higher order mode is generated is greatly affected by the slowest change in the sound speed of the transverse wave among the sound speeds of the bulk waves propagating in the support substrate.
- the slowest sound speed of bulk waves propagating in the support substrate is as high as 5500 m / sec or higher, the change in the frequency position of the higher-order mode due to the change of the slow sound speed is effectively suppressed. Is done.
