Abstract
La présente invention concerne un résonateur à ondes acoustiques de volume à film mince, son procédé de fabrication et un filtre, le résonateur à ondes acoustiques comprenant : une structure d'empilement piézoélectrique, ladite structure d'empilement piézoélectrique comprenant une première électrode, une couche piézoélectrique et une seconde électrode empilées en séquence de bas en haut ; ladite première électrode et/ou ladite seconde électrode comprend un pont arqué annulaire faisant saillie dans la direction à l'opposé de la surface de ladite couche piézoélectrique, la surface interne dudit pont arqué renfermant un vide annulaire, la zone renfermée par ledit vide annulaire étant la région de résonance efficace du résonateur. Dans la présente invention, la limite de la région de résonance efficace est définie par la zone dans laquelle se trouve le pont arqué, et les extrémités de la première électrode et/ou de la seconde électrode à la limite de la région de résonance efficace sont amenées à être en contact avec un gaz dans le vide, l'effet d'élimination du fouillis à la limite de l'électrode dans la région de résonance efficace est ainsi obtenu, et la valeur Q du résonateur est augmentée.
