Large Acoustoelectric Effect in Wafer Bonded Indium Gallium Arsenide / Lithium Niobate Heterostructure Augmented by Novel Gate Control
This paper demonstrates a monolithic surface acoustic wave amplifier fabricated by state-of-the-art heterogenous integration of a IH-V InGaAs-based epitaxial material stack and LiNb03. Due to the superior properties of the materials employed, we observe electron gain and also non-reciprocal gain in excess of 30dB with reduced power consumption. Additionally, we present a framework for performance optimization as a function of material parameters for a targeted gain. This platform enables further advances in active and non-reciprocal piezoelectric acoustic devices.
