PIEZOELECTRIC RESONATOR WITH AIRGAP

摘要

This disclosure provides implementations of electromechanical systems (EMS) piezoelectric resonator structures, transformers, devices, apparatus, systems, and related processes. In one aspect, a piezoelectric resonator structure includes a first conductive electrode layer, a second conductive electrode layer, and a piezoelectric layer arranged between the first and second conductive layers. In some implementations, the surface of the piezoelectric layer adjacent to the first conductive layer is separated from the first conductive layer by a first gap, and the surface of the piezoelectric layer adjacent to the second conductive layer is separated from the second conductive layer by a second gap. In some implementations, the resonator structure further includes an encapsulation layer arranged over the second conductive layer and providing physical support to the second conductive layer.
