Claim 0:
1. An acoustic resonator device comprising:
a substrate having a surface;
a single-crystal piezoelectric plate having front and back surfaces, the back surface attached to the surface of the substrate except for a portion of the piezoelectric plate forming a diaphragm that spans a cavity in the substrate; and
an interdigital transducer formed on the front surface of the piezoelectric plate, interleaved fingers of the IDT disposed on the diaphragm configured such that a radio frequency signal applied to the IDT excites a primary shear acoustic mode in the diaphragm,
wherein the interleaved fingers comprise a first layer adjacent the diaphragm and a second layer over the first layer, the second layer having a narrower width than the first layer.
