  • Publication number: 20090302716
    Abstract: A piezoelectric device which is a MEMS device is provided. In the device, the entire silicon layer of the SOI substrate is a p-type region. A plurality of n-type regions are formed in the silicon layer so as to be exposed to the upper surface of the silicon layer and spaced from each other. A piezoelectric film made of AlN is provided on the SOI substrate so as to contact the n-type region, and a conductor film made of aluminum is provided on the piezoelectric film. Thereby, the n-type region functions as a lower electrode and the conductor film functions as an upper electrode.

  • Publication number: 20050104192
    Abstract: An electronic device having a cavity, which is included in a package, can be sealed with a lid surely and efficiently. A SAW device comprises a SAW chip that is fixed to a plane portion of a stem. A rear surface of the package is hermetically sealed with glass. An opening of a cavity provided on an upper surface of the package is hermetically sealed by a lid with seam welding. Glass is filled to reach the backside of flange of the stem. Such glass prevents the flange from being distorted by the weight of roller electrodes, and keeps the lid and the flange in contact with each other. In addition, the glass serves as a support, and prevents the current from leaking. Therefore, the lid and the flange are sufficiently and surely welded together.
