Abstract
A SAW filter includes a piezoelectric substrate of Lithium Niobate or optionally Lithium Tantalate having a thickness of at least twice an acoustic wavelength. The piezoelectric substrate is bonded to a surrogate substrate of a silicon material. The surrogate substrate is characterized by a resisitivity of at least 100 ohm-cm and an expansion coefficient compatible with the piezoelectric substrate. A catalytic bonding film between the piezoelectric substrate and the surrogate substrate is formed from a first catalytic bonding film deposited onto a surface of the piezoelectric substrate and a second catalytic bonding film deposited onto a surface of the surrogate substrate. The piezoelectric substrate is bonded to the surrogate substrate through a compression force sufficient for providing a bonding at a normal temperature.
