Abstract
A new technique for frequency trimming of surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) devices is demonstrated using ultraviolet light. Irradiation by ultraviolet light of a very thin SiO2 film which is fabricated on a quartz substrate makes it possible to adjust the operation frequency within an accuracy of better than ±10 kHz at 900 MHz with an insertion loss increase of less than 1 dB. This technique is applied successfully to a 668 MHz SAW resonator.
