  • Publication number: 20170301853
    Abstract: A Microelectromechanical System (MEMS) device which includes a piezoelectric stack on a substrate separated by a dielectric layer is disclosed. The piezoelectric stack includes first and second piezoelectric layers with a first electrode below the first piezoelectric layer and a contact pad and a second electrode between the first and second piezoelectric layers. A first contact extends through the piezoelectric layers and contact pad to the first electrode and a second contact extends through the second piezoelectric layer to the second electrode. The contact pad prevents an interface to form between the first and second piezoelectric layers in the contact opening, thus preventing corrosion of the piezoelectric layers during contact formation process.
