Abstract :
For the integration of surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices with nanostructures, numerical simulations must be employed. This paper describes finite element (FEM) models for a basic periodic cell of two types of SAW devices on GaN/Si devoted for GHz applications. E-beam lithographical techniques have been used for IDT fingers of 200nm wide. On wafer measurements of S parameters have shown a good agreement with the simulation results regarding the operation frequency.
