摘要:
A method is provided for manufacturing a resonance device, the method includes forming a recessed portion that forms a vibration space for a resonator in an object that is at least one of an upper lid and a lower lid and includes etching on the object by isotropic etching while the object is covered with a mask having a peripheral portion having a frame shape and a stopper formation that extends from the peripheral portion toward an inside of the peripheral portion. The method further includes etching the object while the object is covered with the mask to form a stopper at a position overlapping with the stopper formation on a bottom surface of the recessed portion in a plan view of the object. In this aspect, the stopper restricts collision of the resonator with the bottom surface of the recessed portion.

A surface mount type quartz crystal device according to a first aspect of the disclosure includes a ceramic package, a pedestal blank, a quartz-crystal vibrating piece. The pedestal blank is placed within the ceramic package via a conductive adhesive. The quartz-crystal vibrating piece is placed on the pedestal blank. The conductive adhesive is formed along an outer peripheral side of the pedestal blank so as to avoid overlap with the excitation electrode viewed in a normal direction of the excitation electrode. The pedestal blank is formed to avoid a region where a distance from the quartz-crystal vibrating piece is equal to or smaller than a size of a clearance between the pedestal blank and the quartz-crystal vibrating piece at the outer peripheral side, in a region where the excitation electrode faces at the pedestal blank side viewed in the normal direction.

A micro-transfer printable transverse bulk acoustic wave filter comprises a piezoelectric filter element having a top side, a bottom side, a left side, and a right side disposed over a sacrificial portion on a source substrate. A top electrode is in contact with the top side and a bottom electrode is in contact with the bottom side. A left acoustic mirror is in contact with the left side and a right acoustic mirror is in contact with the right side. The thickness of the transverse bulk acoustic wave filter is substantially less than its length or width and its length can be greater than its width. The transverse bulk acoustic wave filter can be disposed on, and electrically connected to, a semiconductor substrate comprising an electronic circuit to control the transverse bulk acoustic wave filter and form a composite heterogeneous device that can be micro-transfer printed.

A micro-electrical-mechanical system (MEMS) guided wave device includes a plurality of electrodes arranged below a piezoelectric layer (e.g., either embedded in a slow wave propagation layer or supported by a suspended portion of the piezoelectric layer) and configured for transduction of a lateral acoustic wave in the piezoelectric layer. The piezoelectric layer permits one or more additions or modifications to be made thereto, such as trimming (thinning) of selective areas, addition of loading materials, sandwiching of piezoelectric layer regions between electrodes to yield capacitive elements or non-linear elastic convolvers, addition of sensing materials, and addition of functional layers providing mixed domain signal processing utility.

The invention concerns microelectromechanical resonators. In particular, the invention provides a resonator comprising a support structure, a doped semiconductor resonator suspended to the support structure by at least one anchor, and actuator for exciting resonance into the resonator. According to the invention, the resonator comprises a base portion and at least one protrusion extending outward from the base portion and is excitable by said actuator into a compound resonance mode having temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) characteristics, which are contributed by both the base portion and the at least one protrusion. The invention enables simple resonators, which are very well temperature compensated over a wide temperature range.

摘要:
A piezoelectric oscillation element (1) comprising a piezoelectric substrate (10), a first conductor film (21) formed on one main surface of the piezoelectric substrate (10), a second conductor film (22) formed on the other main surface, and grounding terminals (31a, 31b) formed on the side surfaces of the piezoelectric substrate (10). Specified capacitances are respectively formed between the first and second conductor films (21, 22) formed on the main surfaces of the piezoelectric substrate (10) and the grounding terminals (31a, 31b) formed on the side surfaces thereof. Larger capacitances can be formed than when electrodes are disposed on the same main surface in proximity of each other to form a capacitance, whereby no adverse effect is given to thickness vibration occurring between the first and second conductor films (21, 22).
