Abstract

This paper describes a self-aligned lateral-field excitation (LFE) film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) that exhibits an electromechanical coupling coefficient (K12) of 10% at 4.1 GHz, albeit a relatively low Q of 35. The unique features of this resonator include (1) improved energy trapping structure that does not require an electrode gap close to micron and (2) a simple two-mask self-aligned fabrication process that eliminates misalignment between the piezoelectric ZnO and the metal electrode.
