Problems solved by technology

However, the problem with this method is that the surface of the electrode is activated, chemically reacts with the oxygen present and oxidized during the fabrication of the thin film electrode
Poor film adhesion between this native oxide film and the above newly added film
The problem is that it is difficult to obtain good resonance characteristics and achieve high-precision adjustment
In addition, although only a small number of resonators among multiple resonators formed on a single substrate need to have a thick upper electrode film, this still requires additional manufacturing steps and increases production costs
[0015] As mentioned above, none of the conventional Δf adjustment methods can sufficiently adjust the resonant frequency of the resonator as well as the center frequency of the filter

Abstract

A resonator includes a piezoelectric thin-film provided on a main surface of a substrate, a first electrode film provided on a first surface of the piezoelectric thin-film, a second electrode film provided on a second surface of the piezoelectric thin-film, a frequency adjustment film provided on one of the first and second electrode films, the frequency adjustment film comprising a film laminate including a first adjustment film provided on said one of the first and second electrode films, and a second adjustment film provided on the first adjustment film. The first adjustment film is used for Deltaf adjustment, and the second adjustment film is used for correcting frequency deviations generated in the filter manufacturing process. Thus, it is possible to accurately control the center frequency of the filter in which the multiple resonators are connected.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a resonator, a filter, and a method of manufacturing a resonator, and more particularly, to a piezoelectric resonator, a high-frequency filter having the piezoelectric resonator, and a method of manufacturing the resonator. In particular, the present invention relates to the adjustment technology of the resonance frequency. Background technique [0002] With the rapid growth of wireless communication devices such as mobile phones, there is an increasing demand for filters composed of small and lightweight resonators and combinations of the above resonators. Hitherto, a SAW resonator as a piezoelectric element or a SAW filter having the SAW resonator has been used to filter a specific resonance frequency as an electric signal by utilizing surface acoustic waves (hereinafter referred to as SAW) generated on the surface of a piezoelectric material portion. Recently, piezoelectric thin film resonators and filter...
