  • Abstract
    AlN-based compounds are studied as potential candidate to be used as substrate in surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices. In this paper, we present a study of the acoustic waves phase velocity behavior of a AlxGa1−xN thin film set prepared by molecular beam epitaxy on Si(111) (0≤x≤1 covering the full x-range). This study has been carried out by Brillouin spectroscopy and shows a nearly linear compositional dependence in the full range of concentrations. The maximum value the phase velocity for waves traveling along the film plane directions (11 200 m s−1) is reached for AlN.
