A bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator is constructed to reduce phase and amplitude ripples in a frequency response. The BAW resonator is fabricated on a substrate 400 mum thick or less, preferably approximately 325 mum, having a first side and a polished second side with a peak-to-peak roughness of approximately 1000 A. A Bragg mirror having alternate layers of a high acoustic impedance material, such as tungsten, and a low acoustic impedance material is fabricated on the first side of the substrate. A BAW resonator is fabricated on the Bragg mirror. A lossy material, such as epoxy, coats the second side of the substrate opposite the first side. The lossy material has an acoustic impedance in the range of 0.01× to 1.0× the acoustic impedance of the layers of high acoustic impedance material. |
