Piezoelectric micromechanical disk resonators towards UHF band

TLDR
In this article, the design, simulation, fabrication, and test results of a new type of piezoelectrically transduced micromechanical disk resonator approaching UHF frequencies were presented.
Abstract
This paper presents the design, simulation, fabrication, and test results of a new type of piezoelectrically transduced micromechanical disk resonator approaching UHF frequencies. The resonators were fabricated from silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers with a 4-mask low-temperature process. The highest processing temperature was 250/spl deg/C, allowing post-CMOS integration compatibility. Several prototype resonators with measured diameter of 100 /spl mu/m and 60 /spl mu/m were tested in air, with the highest resonant peak observed at 208 MHz, which matched well with simulation results from finite-element analysis. A quality factor of 15 at 208 MHz was extracted, and is expected to be significantly higher with an optimized design and vacuum testing.

Micromechanical "hollow-disk" ring resonators

TL;DR: In this paper, a hollow disk ring resonator with notched support attachments was proposed. But the support attachment was placed closer to actual extensional ring nodal points, which was notched for substantially higher Q. At 1.2 GHz, a combination of high Q and larger capacitive transducers allowed the notched version to achieve an R/sub x/ of only 282 k/spl Omega, which is 12X smaller than achieved by previous pure polysilicon surface-micromachined solid disk resonators in the GHz range.
