Abstract
A resonator circuit device. This device can include a piezoelectric layer having a front-side electrode and a back-side electrode spatially configured on opposite sides of the piezoelectric layer. Each electrode has a connection region and a resonator region. Each electrode also includes a partial mass-loaded structure configured within a vicinity of its connection region. The front-side electrode and the back-side electrode are spatially configured in an anti-symmetrical manner with the resonator regions of both electrodes at least partially overlapping and the first and second connection regions on opposing sides. This configuration provides a symmetric acoustic impedance profile for improved Q factor and can reduce the issues of misalignment or unbalanced boundary conditions associated with conventional single mass-loaded perimeter configurations.
