As shown in fig. 7a, the semiconductor structure shown in fig. 5g is bonded directly onto the substrate 117 without flipping, wherein the cap-shaped reinforcing structure 102 and the substrate 117 are in contact with each other;
as shown in fig. 7b, a package structure 123 is formed over the substrate 117.
As can be seen from the figure, in the quartz crystal resonator according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the top projection of the bonding region between the cap-shaped reinforcing structure 102 and the substrate 117 and the top projection of the bonding region between the cap-shaped reinforcing structure 102 and the quartz piezoelectric layer 109 overlap each other.
The electronic device of the embodiment of the present invention includes any one of the quartz crystal resonators of the present invention.
