Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators based on AlN or GaN piezoelectric thin films are suitable for GHz frequency filters for microwave communications due to their high sound velocity and low mechanical losses. However, low electromechanical coupling coefficient kt2 in the GaN is a problem because kt2 determines the filter bandwidth. Our group previously reported that improvement of kt2 by doping Yb into AlN and GaN.
c-axis oriented films over the entire wafer surface can be easily obtained when epitaxial growth is employed. This study investigated the structural effects of Yb doping on piezoelectric thin films. Epitaxial thin films of YbGaN, YbAlN, and ScAlN were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering. The kt2 of the obtained thin films was evaluated and compared with theoretical values by first-principles calculations. Compared to the polycrystalline films, the epitaxial YbGaN thin films showed higher kt2, especially for higher Yb concentrations, which was close to the theoretical value obtained by first-principles calculations. This suggests that using epitaxial piezoelectric films in resonators is a feasible way to improve the performance of frequency filters.
