Abstract
A method of manufacture for an acoustic resonator device. The method can include forming a topside metal electrode overlying a piezoelectric substrate with a piezoelectric layer and a seed substrate. A topside micro-trench can be formed within the piezoelectric layer and a topside metal can be formed overlying the topside micro-trench. This topside metal can include a topside metal plug formed within the topside micro-trench. A first backside trench can be formed underlying the topside metal electrode, and a second backside trench can be formed underlying the topside micro-trench. A backside metal electrode can be formed within the first backside trench, while a backside metal plug can be formed within the second backside trench and electrically coupled to the topside metal plug and the backside metal electrode. The topside micro-trench, the topside metal plug, the second backside trench, and the backside metal plug form a micro-via.
