To investigate the effect of AIN c-axis orientation on the resonance performance of film bulk acoustic wave resonators, solidly mounted resonators with crybtallographically different AIN piezoelectric films were prepared by changing only the bottom electrode surface conditions. As increasing the degree of c-axis texturing, the effective electromechanical coupling coefficient ($\kappa$$\_$eff/)$^2$ in resonators increased gradually. The least 4 degree of full width at half maximum in an AIN(002) rocking curve, which corresponds to $\kappa$$^2$$\_$eff/ of above 5%, was measured to be necessary for band pass filter applications in wireless communication system. The longitudinal acoustic wave velocity of AIN films varied with the degree of c-axis texturing. The velocity of highly c-axis textured AIN film was extracted to be about 10200 n/s by mathematical analysis using Matlab.

The aim of the study is to scrutinize the relationship between the area of resonance and insertion loss by analyzing the characteristics of 2-port resonator. This was done through designing an air-gap type Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) by using CAD model for the application of bandpass filter of high-frequency band with piezoelectric thin film. Moreover, through the design of ladder-type BPF, we were able to observe changes in bandwidth, resonation, out-of-band rejection depending on the number and area of resonator.

A new thin film deposition technique of piezoelectric ZnO film and its successful application for film bulk: acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices are presented. The two-step deposition used seems to be able to deposit ZnO film with a highly preferred orientation. The FBAR devices with the ZnO films show an excellent return loss of $35{\sim}50$ dB at $1.5{\sim}2$ GHz.

Effects of bottom electrode materials (Al, Cu, Ti, and Mo), included in film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs), on the orientation of piezoelectric AlN thin films and the frequency response characteristic of resonators were investigated. The texture coefficient (TC) for (002) orientation, crystallite size, full width half maximum (FWHM), and surface roughness of deposited AlN films were measured for the various bottom electrodes. The return tosses estimated from the frequency responses of fabricated resonators were also compared. Experimental results showed that the difference of lattice constant and thermal expansion coefficient between the bottom electrode and the AlN film were the most important factors for achieving a high performance resonator.

In this paper, we emphasize the advantage of thermal annealing treatments for improvement characteristics of film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices. The FBAR devices were fabricated on multi-layer thin films, namely, Bragg reflectors. Sintering and/or annealing processes were applied in our experiments. The measurements confirm once again a considerable improvement of return loss $(S_{11})$ and quality factor $(Q_{s/p})$. these thermal treatment techniques are really promising for enhancing performance of FBAR resonators in industry fabrication of RF devices.

The characteristics of ZnO films are reported depending on different deposition conditions for film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs). The ZnO films have been deposited on Al films evaporated on p-type (100) silicon substrate by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique using a Nd:YAG laser. These films exhibit an electrical resistivity higher than $10^7$ $\Omega$m. X-ray diffraction measurements have shown that ZnO films are highly c-axis oriented with full width at half maximum (FWHM) below $0.5^{\circ}$. These results show the possibility of FBAR devices using by PLD.

We deposited Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films on Ru buffer layer in order to protect the amorphous layer between ZnO and Al interface. In X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, it was observed that increase of (002)-orientation by the variation of annealing treatment temperature. Also, surface roughness and specific resistance were increased by annealing treatment but full width at half maximum (FWHM) was decreased. In film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs) fabricated from these results, we finally confirmed that the resonant frequency of 0.89 GHz without its shift was measured.
