Abstract

Today Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices are used in many electronic products, e.g. as filters in communications applications or for signal processing in radar systems. Due to the dependence of the propagation characteristic of the microacoustic wave on many physical parameters (e.g. temperature or strain) it is possible to build SAW sensors for a great variety of physical, chemical and biological parameters. SAW sensors are not only small, rugged and show small aging rates, they also can be used as wirelessly interrogable and completely passive sensors for many hostile environments. In this contribution the SAW device principles, design procedures and technological issues as well as examples of their use in certain measurement and identification applications are reviewed.
