    Abstract: A metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) device couples light from an optical mode in a waveguide to a surface plasmon polarition (SPP) mode on an electrode surface of the MSM device. Once in an SPP mode, the absorption of light in the semiconductor can take place in a very small area. This may allow for a shrinking of the active detector area and allow for low capacitance, very short transit distance for the electrical carriers and allow for very low voltage devices and/or very high frequency.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming high frequency film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices having multiple resonator thicknesses on a common substrate. A piezoelectric stack is formed in an STI trench and overgrown onto the STI material. In some cases, the piezoelectric stack can include epitaxially grown AlN. In some cases, the piezoelectric stack can include single crystal (epitaxial) AlN in combination with polycrystalline (e.g., sputtered) AlN. The piezoelectric stack thus forms a central portion having a first resonator thickness and end wings extending from the central portion having a different resonator thickness. Each wing may also have different thicknesses. Thus, multiple resonator thicknesses can be achieved on a common substrate, and hence, multiple resonant frequencies on that same substrate. The end wings can have metal electrodes formed thereon, and the central portion can have a plurality of IDT electrodes patterned thereon.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming integrated circuit film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices having multiple resonator thicknesses on a common substrate. A piezoelectric stack is formed in an STI trench and overgrown onto the STI material. In some cases, the piezoelectric stack can include epitaxially grown AlN. In some cases, the piezoelectric stack can include single crystal (epitaxial) AlN in combination with polycrystalline (e.g., sputtered) AlN. The piezoelectric stack thus forms a central portion having a first resonator thickness and end wings extending from the central portion and having a different resonator thickness. Each wing may also have different thicknesses from one another. Thus, multiple resonator thicknesses can be achieved on a common substrate, and hence, multiple resonant frequencies on that same substrate. The end wings can have metal electrodes formed thereon, and the central portion can have a plurality of IDT electrodes patterned thereon.
