SOLIDLY-MOUNTED TRANSVERSELY-EXCITED FILM BULK ACOUSTIC FILTERS WITH MULTIPLE PIEZOELECTRIC PLATE THICKNESSES

Abstract:

Filters and methods of making filters are disclosed. A filter device includes a substrate, a piezoelectric plate, and an acoustic Bragg reflector between a surface of the substrate and a back surface of the piezoelectric plate. A first portion of the piezoelectric plate has a first thickness, and a second portion of the piezoelectric plate has a second thickness less than the first thickness. A conductor pattern on front surfaces of the first and second portions of the piezoelectric plate includes a first interdigital transducer (IDT) with interleaved fingers on the first portion, and a second IDT with interleaved fingers on the second portion.
