The implementation and performance of a surface acoustic wave (SAW)-based acceleration sensor is described. The sensor was composed of a flexible ST-X quartz cantilever beam with a relatively substantial proof mass at the undamped end, a pattern of a two-port SAW resonator deposited directly on the surface of the beam adjacent to the clamped end for maximum strain sensitivity and a SAW resonato...

The use of the digital radio type solutions in the mobile communications is a challenge in the actual microelectronic technology. Because high-power CMOS transistors are not expected to be available in advanced processes within the next several years, the RF front end of the mobile phone will remain analog. In order to miniaturize the mobile phone, the digital part and the analog one can be int...

The rapid expansion of the wireless market has led to a huge growth of more advanced mobile communication systems. Especially, the miniaturized mobile phones have been developed that have multi-functions with higher operating frequencies. Complying with the recent trends, there has been a great demand particularly for ultra-miniaturization and monolithic integration of RF filters as one of core...

The high overtone bulk acoustic wave resonators made of Y-, Lu Alr01o were studies. The Q c .5—X X 2 I £. factor 1.5 2.0*10 at 3.5 4.0 GHz was experimentally found. 1 INTRODUCTION The practical interest to the investigation o...

In the parameter region for sonoluminescence of a single levitated bubble in a water-filled resonator it is observed that the bubble may have an enormous spatial stability leaving it "pinned" in the fluid and allowing it to emit light pulses of picosecond accuracy. We report here observations of a complex harmonic structure in the acoustic field surrounding a sonoluminescing bubble. We show tha...

in this paper, using annular resonator we have designed an adding and dropping filter light based ontwo-dimensional photonic crystals. the shape of ring resonator filter adding and dropping that wehave proposed is race track. this filter has a hexagonal lattice structure of silicon bars withrefractive index 3/46 that is located in the context of air with refractive index 1. transmissionefficien...

A microelectromechanical system (MEMS) sound waveguide is considered as a transmission line for RF signals. We analyze a device geometry of a straight one-dimensional microsize silicon rod, where a longitudinal acoustic wave is generated and detected using capacitive transducers. Linear, isotropic, and nondispersive acoustic-wave propagation is assumed. Based on the calculation of the electrome...

In a travelling wave thermoacoustic device, the regenerator sandwiched between a pair of (hot and cold) heat exchangers constitutes the so-called thermoacoustic core, where the thermoacoustic energy conversion from heat to acoustic power takes place. The temperature gradient along the regenerator caused by the two heat exchangers excites and maintains the acoustic wave in the resonator. The dev...

We present a 91 MHz surface acoustic wave resonator with integrated microfluidics that includes a flow focus, an expansion region, and a binning region in order to manipulate particle trajectories. We demonstrate the ability to change the position of the acoustic nodes by varying the electronic phase of one of the transducers relative to the other in a pseudo-static manner. The measurements wer...
