Abstract

Examples disclosed herein relate to an apparatus and method of forming thin film layers on a substrate. A first piezoelectric material layer is deposited on the substrate in a first chamber. The first piezoelectric material layer is formed on the substrate while the substrate is at a first temperature. A second piezoelectric material layer is deposited on the first piezoelectric material layer after cooling the substrate to a second temperature. The second temperature is lower than the first temperature. The first piezoelectric material layer and the second piezoelectric material layer both comprise a first piezoelectric material.
