The application relates to the technical field of
wireless communication, and provides a
surface acoustic wave device, which comprises a supporting substrate, a
piezoelectric substrate and an
interdigital transducer; the supporting substrate is made of
sapphire material; the
interdigital transducer comprises first interdigital electrodes, second interdigital electrodes, and oppositely arranged first
bus bars and second
bus bars; the first interdigital electrodes are spaced from the second interdigital electrodes and the second
bus bars, and the first interdigital electrodes and the second interdigital electrodes are opposite in polarity; the arrangement direction of the first interdigital electrodes and the second interdigital electrodes is the
sound wave propagation direction; wherein the
sapphire is r-surface
sapphire, the
crystal arrangement of the r-surface sapphire is in the shape of a regular
hexagonal prism, the growth axis of the r-surface sapphire is perpendicular to the bottom surface thereof, and the [2-1-1]
crystal direction of the r-surface sapphire is perpendicular to the normal projection of the growth axis on the r-surface and parallel to the
sound wave propagation direction. The
surface acoustic wave device can realize higher frequency, higher reliability and
higher power.
