Method and system for wafer-level tuning of bulk acoustic wave resonators and filters

摘要

A method and system for tuning a bulk acoustic wave device at the wafer level by adjusting the thickness of the device. In particular, the thickness of the device has a non-uniformity profile across the device surface. A mask having a thickness non-uniformity profile based partly on the thickness non-uniformity profile of the device surface is provided on the device surface for etching. A dry etching method is used to remove part of the mask to expose the underlying device surface and further removed the exposed device surface until the thickness non-uniformity of the device surface falls within tolerance of the device.
