Abstract
In accordance with at least one example of the description, a device includes a substrate and a linear array of transducer elements across the substrate and forming a cavity region. The cavity region is bounded by a first termination region and a second termination region. The linear array of transducer elements includes a transducer element having a front-end-of-line (FEOL) portion that is formed by a FEOL process and a back-end-of-line (BEOL) portion that is formed by an n-layer BEOL process. The BEOL portion of the transducer element includes a ferroelectric capacitor and a conductive element. The conductive element is formed by metal layer-n of the n-layer BEOL process, where n denotes an integer greater than 3.
