Abstract: Techniques for improving Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) resonator structures are disclosed, including filters, oscillators and systems that may include such devices. First and second layers of piezoelectric material may be acoustically coupled with one another to have a piezoelectrically excitable resonance mode. The first layer of piezoelectric material may have a first piezoelectric axis orientation, and the second layer of piezoelectric material may have a second piezoelectric axis orientation that opposes the first piezoelectric axis orientation of the first layer of piezoelectric material. A top acoustic reflector including a first pair of top metal electrode layers may be electrically and acoustically coupled with the first layer of piezoelectric material to excite the piezoelectrically excitable main resonance mode at a resonant frequency.
