Abstract
An apparatus includes a substrate, a thin film piezoelectric layer, a transducer, and a low resistivity layer. The thin film piezoelectric layer is over the substrate, the transducer includes a number of electrodes in contact with the thin film piezoelectric layer and configured to transduce an acoustic wave in the thin film piezoelectric layer. The low resistivity layer is between at least a portion of the substrate and the thin film piezoelectric layer. By providing the low resistivity layer between at least a portion of the substrate and the thin film piezoelectric layer, a spurious response of the apparatus may be significantly reduced, thereby improving the performance thereof.
