BAW RESONATOR WITH IMPROVED TOP ELECTRODE CONNECTION

A BAW resonator comprises a bottom electrode, a piezoelectric layer and a top electrode. A top electrode connection is arranged in a plane above the top electrode. For doing this a spacer is arranged on the top electrode. A capping layer is sitting on the spacer distant from the top electrode such t...

Zusammenfassung:A BAW resonator comprises a bottom electrode, a piezoelectric layer and a top electrode. A top electrode connection is arranged in a plane above the top electrode. For doing this a spacer is arranged on the top electrode. A capping layer is sitting on the spacer distant from the top electrode such that an air-filled gap to the top electrode is kept. The top electrode connection can now be arranged above the capping layer. An electrically conductive path connects the top electrode and the top electrode connection. Such a resonator needs only one lateral design and can provide a low-ohmic interconnection of resonators e.g. in a filter circuit.
