This paper describes a full-wave analysis of ultrahigh electromechanical coupling surface acoustic wave (SAW) of Y-cut X propagating Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (YX-PIMNT) single crystals on a cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) substrate. There are several eigenmodes including shear horizontal (SH) and Rayleigh SAWs. Based on the finite-element method (FEM), the phase velocity (vp) and coupling factor (K2) of SAWs varying with the top electrode thickness, thickness, and Euler angle (θ) of the YX-PIMNT substrate have been investigated. K2 of SH SAW can reach an extremely high value of 75.9%. The proper control of structural parameters can suppress unwanted responses caused by other modes without deteriorating the coupling factor. The large K2 value of SH SAW and suppression of unwanted responses have highly promising applications in developing ultrawideband and tunable SAW filters. Finally, the performance of 3C-SiC and 6H-SiC as substrates was investigated, and 3C-SiC was identified as a more attractive substrate candidate than 6H-SiC.

In this paper, a hybrid full-wave analysis of surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices is proposed to achieve accurate and fast simulation. The partial differential equation (PDE) models of the physical system in question and graphics processing unit (GPU)-assisted hierarchical cascading technology (HCT) are used to calculate acoustic-electric characteristics of a SAW filter. The practical solid model of the radio frequency (RF) filter package is constructed in High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software and the parasitic electromagnetics of the entire package is considered in the design process. The PDE-based models of the two-dimensional finite element method (2D-FEM) are derived in detail and solved by the PDE module embedded in COMSOL Multiphysics. Due to the advantages of PDE-based 2D-FEM, it is universal, efficient and not restricted to handling arbitrary materials and crystal cuts, electrode shapes, and multi-layered substrate. Combining COMSOL Multiphysics with a user-friendly interface, a flexible way of modeling and mesh generation, it can greatly reduce the complicated process of modeling and physical properties definition. Based on a hybrid full-wave analysis, we present an example application of this approach on a TC-SAW ladder filter with 5° YX-cut LiNbO3 substrate. Numerical results and measurements were calculated for comparison, and the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method were verified.
