Abstract

PURPOSE:To realize the surface acoustic wave resonator without spurious response at a lower frequency of the resonance frequency by interleaving part of a comb-line electrode so as to make the electrode discontinuous. CONSTITUTION:One set of a comb-line electrode 12 and a grating reflector 13 located at both sides of the comb-line electrode 12 are formed respectively to the surface of a piezoelectric substrate 11. Let the total length of the comb- line electrode 12 be L, the comb-line electrode 12 is interleaved from a point of L/6 from both ends by a length of L/6 to make the comb-line electrode 12 discontinuous. As shown in the displacement distribution of the resonator in the harmonic longitudinal mode, the comb-line electrode 12 is formed in this way thereby cancelling charges in the ternary mode. Thus, spurious radiation at a low frequency of the resonance frequency is suppressed.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, such conventional configurations have the problem of generating spurious waves on the low-frequency side of the resonant frequency, making it impossible to increase the variable frequency width when, for example, configuring a voltage controlled oscillator. This is due to the response due to higher-order longitudinal modes, and in a one-point surface acoustic wave resonator in which comb-shaped electrodes are arranged in series as described above, the charge due to odd-order higher-order longitudinal modes is canceled out. This is because they are unable to do so.
