Abstract :
Experimental performance of tunable Film Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators (FBAR) using paraelectric phase BaxSr1-xTiO3 (BSTO) thin films is reported. It is shown that the SiO2/W based Bragg reflectors deposited on high resistivity substrates withstand relatively high deposition temperatures (<; 600C) of the ferroelectric films without defects and delamination. Tunable FBARs with Qf products more than 1000 are demonstrated experimentally. Potentials of increasing the Q-factor and tunability are considered.
