Patent ID: 11356071

Abstract:
A method and structure for a transfer process for an acoustic resonator device. In an example, a bulk acoustic wave resonator (BAWR) with an air reflection cavity is formed. A piezoelectric thin film is grown on a crystalline substrate. Patterned electrodes are deposited on the surface of the piezoelectric film. An etched sacrificial layer is deposited over the electrodes and a planarized support layer is deposited over the sacrificial layer. The device can include temperature compensation layers (TCL) that improve the device TCF. These layers can be thin layers of oxide type materials and can be configured between the top electrode and the piezoelectric layer, between the bottom electrode and the piezoelectric layer, between two or more piezoelectric layers, and any combination thereof. In an example, the TCLs can be configured from thick passivation layers overlying the top electrode and/or underlying the bottom electrode.
