Thermal Improvements for 2.75 GHz-FBAR Devices

  • Published : 2007.10.26

Abstract

In this paper, we studied a ZnO-based film bulk acoustic wave resonator (FBAR) device fabricated on top of a novel multi-layered Bragg reflector with chromium adhesion layers $(0.03{\mu}m-thick)$ inserted. The performance of FBAR device could be significantly improved using proper thermal treatments. At ${\sim}2.75$ GHz, we could achieve good return loss and quality factor (Q). This device fabrication technique will be useful for the future mobile WiMAX applications.
