Abstract
Bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators, and electrical filters that incorporate the BAW resonators, are described. Generally, the BAW resonators comprise a substrate comprising an acoustic reflector; a first electrode disposed over the acoustic reflector; a piezoelectric layer disposed over the first electrode, the piezoelectric layer comprising scandium-doped aluminum nitride (ASN); a diffusion barrier layer disposed over the piezoelectric layer; and a second electrode disposed over the diffusion barrier layer. The diffusion barrier layer configured to prevent diffusion of material of the first electrode into the piezoelectric layer.
