Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, there is a problem in Conventional Technology 1, Conventional Technology 2, and Conventional Technology 3 in that resonance characteristics and filter characteristics change with variations caused by manufacturing processes
In addition, there are other problems in Conventional Technology 4 and Conventional Technology 5 in that resonance characteristics and filter characteristics deteriorate
In addition, conventional technologies 1 to 5 all have the common problem of low reliability
Moreover, if the resonance characteristics and filter characteristics are further improved, the resonance characteristics and filter characteristics will be changed, and the reliability will be reduced

[0052] Another example of a resonator will be explained in the second embodiment. The resonator employed in the second embodiment has an enlarged region in which a silicon oxide film serving as the center frequency adjustment film 20 is to be formed. Figure 8A is a top view of the resonator employed in the first embodiment, and the center frequency adjustment film 20 is not shown. Figure 8B shows the Figure 8A The center frequency in the illustrated resonator adjusts the area of ​​the membrane 20 . As shown in FIG. 8B , the center frequency adjustment film 20 is formed only in the diaphragm region 22 .

[0053] FIG. 8C shows a region in which the center frequency adjustment film 20a is formed according to the second embodiment. Center frequency adjustment film 20 a is formed in a region other than windows provided for joining upper electrode 16 and lower electrode 12 . That is, the center frequency adjustment film 20a is formed larger than the diaphragm region 22 to incl...

Abstract

A piezoelectric thin-film resonator includes a lower electrode provided on a substrate, a piezoelectric thin film provided on the lower electrode, and an upper electrode provided on the piezoelectric thin film. A membrane region is defined by a region where the upper electrode and the lower electrode overlap each other to sandwich the piezoelectric thin film therebetween and has an elliptical shape, and the lower electrode is also provided at an outer side of the membrane region in a region in which neither an extraction electrode of the upper electrode nor an extraction electrode of the lower electrode is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to piezoelectric thin film resonators and filters, and more particularly, to piezoelectric thin film resonators and filters having the same in which mutually overlapping An upper electrode and a lower electrode sandwich a piezoelectric film therebetween. Background technique [0002] With the rapid expansion of high-frequency wireless devices represented by mobile phones, there is an increasing need for small-sized and light-weight high-frequency filters for use in the high-frequency band of 900 MHz to 5 GHz. Filters mainly including surface acoustic wave devices are used in the above fields. Today, however, attention is focused on piezoelectric thin film resonators and filters having them because the devices have excellent high-frequency characteristics, can be miniaturized, and can be fabricated onto a single substrate. [0003] Piezoelectric thin film resonators include, for example, film bulk acoustic reson...
