Abstract: A SAW resonator with reduced spurious modes is provided. The resonator comprises a (111) silicon carrier substrate (CS), an electrode structure (ES) and a piezoelectric layer (PIL). The carrier substrate has a crystal orientation with the Euler angles (?45°±10°; ?54°±10°; 60°±30°) and the piezoelectric layer comprises LiTaO3 and has a crystal orientation with the Euler angles (0°; 56°±8°; 0°). There may be intermediate layers (IL1, IL2) of SiO2 and amorphous or polycrystalline materials. In addition a silicon nitride layer is provided as passivation (PAL). Electrodes are made of aluminum. Thicknesses of all layers are selected in particular ranges to optimize SAW behaviour.

The second portion has different heights across the second (Y) axis. The different heights are defined with respect to a third (Z) axis that is substantially normal to the planar surface.
