Transversely-excited film bulk acoustic resonator with reduced spurious modes

Abstract:

Acoustic filters, resonators and methods are disclosed. An acoustic resonator device includes a substrate having a surface. A back surface of a single-crystal piezoelectric plate is 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. A conductor pattern is formed on the front surface of the piezoelectric plate, the conductor pattern including an interdigital transducer (IDTs), interleaved fingers of the IDT disposed on the diaphragm. A pitch of the interleaved fingers and a mark of the interleaved fingers are set in combination such that a resonance frequency of the acoustic resonator is equal to a predetermined target frequency.
