  • Patent number: 11916530
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a filter circuit and techniques for filtering using the filter circuit. The filter circuit generally includes a first filter stage having a first acoustic wave resonator coupled in a series path between a first port of the filter circuit and a second port of the filter circuit, a first inductor-capacitor (LC) tank circuit, a first capacitor coupled between a first terminal of the first acoustic wave resonator and the first LC tank circuit, the first LC tank circuit being coupled between the first capacitor and a reference potential node, and a second capacitor coupled between a second terminal of the first acoustic wave resonator and the first LC tank circuit. In some aspects, the filter circuit includes one or more other filter stages coupled to the first filter stage.

  • Patent number: 8715517
    Abstract: A process for fabricating an acoustic wave resonator comprising a suspended membrane comprising a piezoelectric material layer, comprises the following steps: production of a first stack comprising at least one layer of first piezoelectric material on the surface of a first substrate; production of a second stack comprising at least one second substrate; production of at least one non-bonding initiating zone by deposition or creation of particles of controlled sizes leaving the surface of one of said stacks endowed locally with projecting nanostructures before a subsequent bonding step; direct bonding of said two stacks creating a blister between the stacks, due to the presence of the non-bonding initiating zone; and, thinning of the first stack to eliminate at least the first substrate.

  • Patent number: 8431031
    Abstract: A method for fabricating a bulk wave acoustic resonator (FBAR) which includes at least locally a partially suspended thin layer of piezoelectric material, and includes the following steps: the formation of at least one first so-called lower electrode on the surface of a thin layer of piezoelectric material; the deposition of a so-called sacrificial layer on the surface of the said thin layer of piezoelectric material and of the said first electrode defining a first set; the assembling of the said first set with a second substrate; the formation of at least one second electrode termed the upper electrode on the opposite face of the said thin layer of piezoelectric material from the face comprising the said first electrode; and the elimination of the sacrificial layer so as to unveil the said thin layer of piezoelectric material and the said first electrode and define the bulk wave resonator.
