Abstract :
Antenna theory is applied to model the radiation conductance of thick-film interdigital transducers (IDTs) in dual mode wideband leaky-SAW resonator-filters on 64° Y-X LiNbO3 employing a three-IDT structure. As well, SAW coupling-of-modes reflection-grating equations and IDT S-parameters are modified to cater for increased leaky-SAW attenuation above the Bragg frequency. Theoretical frequency response computations are in excellent agreement with experimental results obtained for several 85-MHz structures fabricated with metallization film thickness ratios (h/λ) of up to 3%
