摘要:
A method of forming an acoustic resonator includes forming a seed layer on a first electrode layer, forming a piezoelectric layer directly on a surface of the seed layer, and forming a second electrode layer on the piezoelectric layer. The piezoelectric layer includes multiple crystals of piezoelectric material, and the seed layer causes crystal axis orientations of the crystals to be substantially perpendicular to the surface of the seed layer.

A thin film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) includes a first electrode, a first piezoelectric layer having a first c-axis orientation and on the first electrode, a second piezoelectric layer having a second c-axis orientation over the first piezoelectric layer, and a second electrode on the second piezoelectric layer. The first and second piezoelectric layers are made of respective different piezoelectric materials. The FBAR can be set to have different resonance frequencies by selecting the first and second c-axis orientations to be respectively the same or different. The high and low frequency range of the FBAR can thus be extended.
