Abstract

The invention relates to an acoustic wave device comprising at least one surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter and one bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filter, characterized in that it includes, on a substrate comprising a second piezoelectric material (Piezo2): a stack of layers comprising at least a first metal layer (M1) and a layer of a first monocrystalline piezoelectric material (Piezo1), wherein the stack of layers is partially etched so as to define a first area in which the first and second piezoelectric materials are present and a second area in which the first piezoelectric material is absent; a second metallization (M2) at the first area for defining the bulk acoustic wave filter integrating the first piezoelectric material, and a third metallization (M3) at the second area for defining the surface acoustic wave filter integrating the second piezoelectric material. The invention also relates to a method for making the device of the invention, advantageously using application steps similar to those used is the Smart Cut TM method or mechanical bonding / thinning steps.

Description

technical field [0001] The field of the invention is that of bandpass filters, and more specifically that of acoustic wave filters. Background technique [0002] The development of radio frequency communication in the past decade or so is reflected in the congestion of authorized frequency bands. In order to exploit the usable frequency band, the system must include band-pass filtering means with narrow transition bands. Only resonator filters in SAW (surface wave) or BAW (bulk wave) technology that exploit the piezoelectric properties of the material enable these specifications to achieve low loss and reduced crowding. Currently, piezoelectric layers for these filters can be fabricated by deposition, which enables the design of bulk acoustic wave filters (BAW filters), or from bulk substrates, which allows the design of surface acoustic wave filters (SAW filters). device). [0003] The specifications required by professionals in telecom equipment are becoming more string...
