摘要:
A resonator structure (1200, 1300, 1400), where a certain wave mode is piezoelectrically excitable, comprises at least two conductor layers (110, 120) and at least one piezoelectric layer (110) in between the conductor layers, said conductor layers and piezoelectric layer extending over a first area of the resonator structure, which first area is a piezoelectrically excitable area of the resonator structure. The resonator structure is characterized in that it comprises a frame-like zone (2, 4) confining a center area (3) within the first area, a cut-off frequency of the piezoelectrically excited wave mode in the layer structure of the frame-like zone is different from that in the layer structure of the center area, and width of the frame-like zone and acoustical properties of the layer structure in the frame-like zone are arranged so that displacement relating to the piezoelectrically excited strongest resonance mode is substantially uniform in the center area of the resonator.

Resonator structure (600, 800, 810, 820) comprises two conductor layers (110, 120) and a piezoelectric layer (100) in between the conductor layers, and said conductor layers and piezoelectric layer extend over a first area of the resonator structure, which first area is a piezoelectrically excitable area of the resonator structure. The resonator structure is characterized in that it is arranged to have a zone (603, 801, 803, 804), which confines a center area (604, 802) within the first area of the resonator, and the layer structure in the zone is arranged to be such that piezoelectrically excited vibrations are dampened more effectively in the zone than in the center area.
摘要:
A method of use in fabricating a device comprising a thin film of material, the fabrication using magnetron sputtering to deposit the thin film on a surface of some other material, the method including the step of: performing successive sputtering cycles, each cycle including sputtering at a first gas pressure so as to achieve a predetermined first thickness, and sputtering at a second, different gas pressure, so as to obtain a predetermined second thickness. The thin film so deposited has an average stress intermediate between the first stress and the second stress, an average stress that can be made to be approximately equal to a predetermined intermediate stress by a judicious choice of the time for sputtering at each of the two pressures. Usually, the thin film is built up incrementally, using many successive cycles of sputtering at first the first gas pressure and then the second gas pressure.
摘要:
The invention describes a manufacturing method for an acoustic balanced-unbalanced (balun) or balanced-balanced thin-film BAW filter based on lateral acoustic coupling. In laterally acoustically coupled thin-film BAW filters (LBAW) one can realize transformation from unbalanced to balanced electric signal if the electrodes of the balanced port are placed on the opposite sides of the piezoelectric film. The manufacturing process is simpler than in the corresponding component based on vertical acoustical coupling. The device can also realize impedance transformation.
