Zusammenfassung: | An integrated circuit film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) device having multiple resonator thicknesses is formed on a common substrate in a stacked configuration. In an embodiment, a seed layer is deposited on a substrate, and one or more multi-layer stacks are deposited on the seed layer, each multi-layer stack having a first metal layer deposited on a first sacrificial layer, and a second metal layer deposited on a second sacrificial layer. The second sacrificial layer can be removed and the resulting space is filled in with a piezoelectric material, and the first sacrificial layer can be removed to release the piezoelectric material from the substrate and suspend the piezoelectric material above the substrate. More than one multi-layer stack can be added, each having a unique resonant frequency. Thus, multiple resonator thicknesses can be achieved on a common substrate, and hence, multiple resonant frequencies on that same substrate. |
