Patent number: 8720023Abstract: A method for fabricating subminiature, high-performance monolithic duplexer is disclosed. The method comprises depositing and patterning a lower electrode on an upper surface of an insulation layer on a substrate, so as to expose a first part of the insulation layer; depositing a piezoelectric layer on an upper surface of the exposed insulation layer and the lower electrode; depositing a metal on the upper part of the piezoelectric layer and patterning the metal to form a resonance part and a trimming inductor, wherein the lower electrode electrically couples the resonance part and the trimming inductor; fabricating air gap type FBARs (film bulk acoustic resonances) by forming a cavity by etching the substrate under the resonance part; and bonding a packaging substrate on the substrate, the packaging substrate having a phase shifting part which substantially prevents inflow of signal between the air gap type FBARs.Type: GrantFiled: December 24, 2009Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yun-kwon Park, In-sang Song, Seok-chul Yun, Seog-woo Hong, Byeoung-ju Ha, Dong-ha Shim, Hae-seok Park, Kuang-woo Nam, Duck-hwan Kim

Patent number: 6989664Abstract: An RF power sensor for measuring power for an RF signal using capacitance includes a substrate preferably formed of a semiconductor, such as silicon or of a dielectric substance, a fixture part fixed to the substrate and forming a signal line and ground lines that transmit RF signals, and a bridge connected to the ground lines and floating over the signal line, wherein the bridge is driven by an external driving force, and the external driving force induces capacitance between the bridge and the signal line. Accordingly, power for an RF signal can be measured through the capacitance between the signal line and the bridge. The RF power sensor facilitates matchings, reduces insertion loss, and can be used in a wide bandwidth because it is based on transmission lines having characteristic impedance. Further, high power can be measured depending upon bridge designs.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2003Date of Patent: January 24, 2006Assignee: Samsung Electonics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Dong-ha Shim, In-sang Song, Young-il Kim, Sun-hee Park, Young-tack Hong, Dong-ki Min
