Abstract
A component operating with bulk acoustic waves has a carrier substrate, a thin-film resonator and an acoustic mirror arranged between the resonator and carrier substrate The acoustic mirror is formed by at least one high acoustic impedance layer, which is covered by a low acoustic impedance layer and the uppermost low impedance acoustic layer is planarized to form a flat planar surface on which the thin-film resonator is formed

Piezoelectric resonators on a differentially offset reflector

TL;DR: In this article, a differentially offset reflector is used to isolate the resonators from the substrate, which shifts the resonant frequencies of those resonators that do not overlie the differential layer of material.

SBAR structures and method of fabrication of SBAR.FBAR film processing techniques for the manufacturing of SBAR/BAR filters

TL;DR: In this article, an acoustical resonator is constructed by creating a cavity in the substrate and filling the same with a sacrificial material that can be rapidly removed from the cavity after the deposition of the various layers making up the resonator.
