  • Employing six layers of silicon dioxide and tantalum oxide as Bragg reflectors.
  • Applying DC bias to induce electrostriction in the BST thin film for tuning filter response.
  • Main Results:

    • The BAW duplexer demonstrated switchable bandpass responses for transmitting (Tx) and receiving (Rx) filters.
    • Center frequencies were observed at 4.635 GHz (Tx) and 4.878 GHz (Rx) with bandwidths of 119 MHz and 154 MHz, respectively.
    • Simulated results using circuit, Butterworth-van-Dyke, and electromagnetic models closely matched experimental measurements.

    Conclusions:

    • A switchable and tunable BAW duplexer utilizing BST thin film electrostriction was successfully fabricated and demonstrated.
    • The device shows promise for advanced RF applications requiring adaptable filtering.
    • The electrostrictive effect in BST provides an effective mechanism for tuning BAW duplexer performance.
