Abstract

Epitaxial YbAlN, YbGaN and ScAlN films were successfully fabricated by magnetron sputtering. The electromechanical coupling coefficient is 4.5% in the epitaxial Sc0.03Al0.97N film and reaches to 4.8% in the epitaxial Yb0.27Al0.73N film. Compare with the polycrystalline films, the epitaxial YbGaN films show a higher k-{t}{2}, close to the theoretical values calculated by first principles calculations, especially at high doping Yb concentrations. This suggests that the use of epitaxial piezoelectric films in the resonator is a feasible approach to improve the performance of frequency filters.
