HIGH Q SOLIDLY-MOUNTED TRANSVERSELY-EXCITED FILM BULK ACOUSTIC RESONATORS

Abstract:

Acoustic resonators and filters are disclosed. An acoustic resonator 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 conductor pattern on a front surface of the piezoelectric plate includes an interdigital transducer (IDT). The IDT includes a first busbar, a second busbar, and interleaved parallel fingers extending alternately from the first and second busbars. The fingers include a first finger and a last finger at opposing ends of the IDT. A first reflector element is proximate and parallel to the first finger and a second reflector element is proximate and parallel to the last finger. A distance pr between the first reflector element and the first finger and between the second reflector element and the last finger is greater than a pitch p of the IDT.
