Abstract
Acoustic wave filter devices are disclosed. In an embodiment, the device includes an acoustic wave resonator and a reflecting layer located below the acoustic wave resonator. The wave resonator includes an input electrode including a first electrode and a counter electrode, a piezoelectric layer sandwiched between the first electrode and the counter electrode, and an output electrode. The piezoelectric layer has a first region covered by the first or the output electrode, and a second region not covered by any of the first and the output electrode. The first region has a second order acoustic thickness-shear resonance (TS2) mode dispersion curve with a first minimum frequency, and the second region has a TS2 mode dispersion curve with a second minimum frequency. The reflecting layer's thickness is such that a difference between the first minimum frequency and the second minimum frequency is less than 2% of a filter center frequency.
