A thin-film bulk acoustic oscillator comprises: a base; a barrier layer disposed on the base; a lower electrode disposed on the barrier layer; a piezoelectric thin film disposed on the lower electrode; and an upper electrode disposed on the piezoelectric thin film. The piezoelectric thin film includes a columnar crystal that extends in the direction intersecting the film surface. The top surface of the piezoelectric thin film is flattened by polishing so as to have a root mean square roughness of 2 nm or smaller.

A method of manufacturing a piezoelectric thin film resonator forms, after forming a piezoelectric film on a substrate so as to cover a lower electrode formed on the substrate, an electrode material layer for forming an upper electrode above the piezoelectric film, forms a mask of a predetermined form on the electrode material layer, and then etches the electrode material layer to form the upper electrode. Before a step of forming the electrode material layer, a protective layer for protecting the piezoelectric film during etching of the electrode material layer is formed so as to cover at least a part of the piezoelectric film where the upper electrode is not formed, and the electrode material layer is then formed so as to cover the protective layer.

A piezoelectric resonant filter includes a group of series resonators and a group of parallel resonators for forming a ladder-type filter circuit. Each of the resonators has a piezoelectric thin film having piezoelectric characteristic, and lower and upper electrodes disposed on opposite surfaces of the piezoelectric thin film for applying an excitation voltage to the piezoelectric thin film. The group of the parallel resonators exhibits a low frequency side attenuation extremum in the filter whereas the group of the series resonators exhibits a high frequency side attenuation extremum in the filter. At least one of the group of the series resonators and the group of the parallel resonators has a temperature compensating layer for bringing the temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency close to zero.
