Title
Investigation Of Pecvd Silicon Nitride Films For Surface Wave Devices
Abstract
Silicon nitride thin films deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) have been investigated for application to SAW devices. A matrix of deposition conditions were investigated and the deposition parameters for high quality films applicable to SAW technology were found. It was confirmed that films having low optical attenuation also have correspondingly good acoustic properties. This paper will present the experimental procedures for depositing the silicon nitride films, the parameters for high quality film deposition and experimental results on the acoustic loss and velocity dispersion. Results indicate low SAW propagation loss and velocity dispersion correlate well with previous investigations.
