TRANSVERSELY-EXCITED FILM BULK ACOUSTIC RESONATOR WITH A FRONT-SIDE DIELECTRIC LAYER AND OPTIMIZED PITCH AND MARK

Abstract:

Acoustic resonators and filter devices. An acoustic resonator includes a piezoelectric plate having front and back surfaces, a portion of the piezoelectric plate forming a diaphragm, a conductor pattern on the front surface, the conductor pattern including an interdigital transducer (IDT), fingers of the IDT on the diaphragm, and a front-side dielectric layer on the front surface of the piezoelectric plate between the interleaved fingers. A resonant frequency is determined, in part, by a thickness of the front-side dielectric layer. A ratio of a mark of the interleaved fingers to a pitch of the interleaved fingers is greater than or equal to 0.12 and less than or equal to 0.3.
