Problems solved by technology

Although the substrate or piezoelectric film has high sound velocity and thermal conductivity, it is expected to produce high-frequency and high-power devices, but the major defects of these substrates or piezoelectric films compared with single crystal substrates lead to large propagation loss and poor consistency
These reflect on the device that the Q value is small, the propagation loss is large, and the uniformity of the device is poor.
The reason is that these diamonds are polycrystalline materials, and the high density of crystal defects causes high propagation loss
In addition, the quality of the piezoelectric thin films grown on these substrates is far inferior to that of single crystal substrates, and crystal defects in the thin films further deteriorate the performance of the devices.
