Abstract
Acoustic resonator devices and methods are disclosed. An acoustic resonator device includes a piezoelectric plate having opposed front and back surfaces. A first electrode and a second electrode are formed on the front surface of the piezoelectric plate, the first and second electrodes and the piezoelectric plate configured such that a radio frequency signal applied between the first and second electrodes excites a shear primary acoustic mode in the piezoelectric plate. The first electrode and the second electrode have trapezoidal cross-sectional shapes. A sidewall angle of at least one side surface of the first electrode and a sidewall angle of at least one side surface of the second electrode are greater than or equal to 70 degrees and less than or equal to 110 degrees.
