ARRANGEMENT OF A PIEZOACOUSTIC RESONATOR ON AN ACOUSTIC MIRROR OF A SUBSTRATE, METHOD FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF THE ARRANGEMENT AND USE OF THE ARRANGEMENT

摘要

In an arrangement of at least one piezoacoustic resonator on a substrate surface, the resonator has an piezoelectric layer, an electrode and a further electrode arranged such that activation of the electrodes leads to a resonance oscillation, the substrate surface is formed by an acoustic mirror integrated in the substrate for acoustically insulating substrate and resonator, and with a resonance frequency evaluation device being connected to the electrodes by tracks being routed through a mirror opening. The acoustic mirror has a Bragg reflector having lambda/4-thick layers of different acoustic impedance. The topmost layer is made of silicon dioxide acting as an insulation layer in the mirror opening for electrically insulating the conductor track and the electrically conductive Bragg reflector layers. The arrangement is used as a physical transducer of a device for detecting a substance of a fluid, in particular of a fluid in the form of a liquid (biosensor).
