Abstract

Techniques for improving Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) reflector and resonator structures are disclosed, including filters, oscillators and systems that may include such devices. A bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator may comprise a substrate and a first layer of piezoelectric material having a first piezoelectric axis orientation. The bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator may comprise a multi-layer acoustic reflector, e.g., a multi-layer metal top acoustic reflector electrode, including a first pair of top metal electrode layers. The first pair of top metal electrode layers may be electrically and acoustically coupled with the first layer of piezoelectric material to excite a piezoelectrically excitable resonance mode at a resonant frequency of the BAW resonator.
