An upper electrode is provided on one main surface of a piezoelectric layer, and a lower electrode is provided on the other main surface thereof. A vibration section is an area in which the lower electrode, the piezoelectric layer and the upper electrode overlap in a vertical projection direction. Line electrodes for respectively connecting the lower electrode and the upper electrode to input/output electrodes are provided on the one main surface and the other main surface of the piezoelectric layer. The vibration section is placed on (connected to) the substrate via the support section. The support section is provided on an area of the piezoelectric layer excluding the area on which the vibration section is provided and the area on which the input/output electrodes and the line electrodes are provided.

A film bulk acoustic wave resonator including a piezoelectric body 1, and a first electrode 2 and a second electrode 3 that are provided respectively on the main surfaces of the piezoelectric body, the piezoelectric body being applied an electric field through the first and the second electrodes so as to generate a resonant vibration. A first mass load material portion 4 having an annular shape is provided outside the planar region of the first electrode on the main surface of the piezoelectric body, a mass load effect thereof being larger than that of the first electrode. The outer periphery of the first electrode and the inner periphery of the first mass load material portion are spaced apart from each other, whereby the first electrode and the first mass load material portion are electrically insulated from each other. The first mass load material portion has a laminated structure including a first auxiliary electrode layer 2a and a load material layer 4a formed on the auxiliary electrode layer. The first auxiliary electrode is formed with the same material to have the same thickness as the first electrode. Energy loss can be reduced, while the first mass load material portion can be formed easily with high precision.

A dual mode piezoelectric filter includes a piezoelectric material layer composed of a piezoelectric thin film of the high-cut type formed on a substrate, a first electrode and a second electrode formed on one of the major surfaces of the piezoelectric material layer with a gap provided therebetween, a third electrode formed on the other major surface of the piezoelectric material layer opposite to the first electrode, the second electrode, and the gap, and an interelectrode mass load element formed in the gap or at a position opposite to the gap on a surface of the piezoelectric material layer.

A filter characteristic with a smooth passband and low losses is obtained.

A resonator using the MEMS technology is provided which improves the accuracy of a shape of electrodes so as avoid a short circuit that would otherwise be caused between input and output electrodes to thereby increase the reliability thereof. A resonator includes a substrate 101, an insulation layer 102 formed selectively on the substrate 101 as a sacrificial surface, a beam 103 formed on the substrate 101 via a space, a first support portion 104A formed on the insulation layer 102 of the same material as that of the beam 103, and electrodes formed with a space defined between the beam 103 and themselves for signals to be inputted thereinto and outputted therefrom. A sectional area of the beam 103 and a sectional area of the first support portion 104A are substantially equal in a section which is perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the beam 103.
