Abstract
Methods are described for constructing a mechanical resonating structure by applying an active layer on a surface of a compensating structure. The compensating structure comprises one or more materials having an adaptive resistance to deform that reduces a variance in a resonating frequency of the mechanical resonating structure, wherein at least the active layer and the compensating structure form a mechanical resonating structure having a plurality of layers of materials A thickness of each of the plurality of layers of materials results in a plurality of thickness ratios therebetween.
