Abstract
A method for adjusting the stress state of a piezoelectric film having a first stress state at room temperature includes a step of forming an assembly including a carrier having a thermal expansion coefficient, a compliant layer placed on the carrier, and the piezoelectric film placed on the compliant layer, the piezoelectric film having a thermal expansion coefficient different from that of the carrier. The method also includes a step of heat treating the assembly, in which the assembly is heated to a treatment temperature above the glass transition temperature of the compliant layer. The present disclosure also relates to a process for fabricating an acoustic wave device comprising the piezoelectric layer the stress state of which was adjusted as described herein.
