PIEZOELECTRIC RESONATORS WITH CONFIGURATIONS HAVING NO GROUND CONNECTIONS TO ENHANCE ELECTROMECHANICAL COUPLING

摘要

This disclosure provides implementations of electromechanical systems resonator structures, devices, apparatus, systems, and related processes. In one aspect, resonator apparatus includes a first conductive layer including a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode is coupled to receive a first input signal, and the second electrode is coupled to provide a first output signal. A piezoelectric layer includes a piezoelectric material. The piezoelectric layer has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first side is proximate the first conductive layer, and the second side is electrically isolated from ground. In some examples, the second side of the piezoelectric layer can be exposed and/or electrically de-coupled from one or more components.
