Outline • Abstract • Introduction • Background • Experimental setup • Experimental results • Conclusion
Abstract • Digital tuning • Resonator array • Band-select filter
Introduction-1 • Why band-select filter? Hz
Introduction-2 • Extensional mode resonator
Background-1 • S.A. Bhave, and R.T. Howe, “Silicon nitride-on-silicon bar resonator using internal electrostatic transduction,” Transducers’05, Seoul, Korea, June 5-9, 2005, pp. 2139-2142. Poly electrode 100nm SiN 3um SOI
Background-2 • f = (n/2L) (E/ρ)^1/2 E:effective elastic modulus for 2D expansion ρ: density of the resonator respectively n:harmonic order Center frequency : 511 MHz
Experimental setup • DC1=DC4=+Vp, DC2=DC3=OFF • DC1=DC3=+Vp, DC2=DC4=-Vp • DC1=DC2=DC3=DC4=+Vp
Experimental results-1 1. DC1=DC4=50V, DC2=DC3=OFF 4-port filter
Experimental results-2 2. DC1=DC3=40V, DC2=DC4= -40V resonator 1 and 2 :Out of plane Lower sub-band filter
Experimental results-3 3. DC1=DC2=DC3=DC4= 40V resonator 1 and 2 : in plane higher sub-band filter
Conclusion • Digital tuning at 509 MHz with 1.4 MHz bandwidth and with sub-bands 700 kHz wide. • More resonators will provide finer sub-bands.
