Abstract :
In this paper, we use a hybrid method which combines the traditional guided waves concept and FEM (finite element method) to analyze the spurious modes of aluminum nitride (AlN) film with electrodes. First, the guided wave modes in plated area are gotten by 1-D FEM. The vibration of the film resonator is a superposition of all the guided modes. We find that for AlN film resonator, a thickness-stretch mode resonator, there are three families of spurious modes, extension, thickness-stretch and thickness-shear. The spectrum of spurious modes is calculated and the influence of the spurious modes is discussed
