Assembly with partially embedded interdigital transducer electrode

Abstract

An acoustic wave device assembly is disclosed. The acoustic wave device assembly can include a first acoustic wave device that includes a first substrate, a first piezoelectric layer, a first solid acoustic mirror that is disposed between the first substrate and the first piezoelectric layer, and a first interdigital transducer electrode that has a first portion embedded in the first piezoelectric layer and a second portion disposed over a surface of the first piezoelectric layer. The acoustic wave device assembly can include a second acoustic wave device that includes a second substrate, a second piezoelectric layer, a second solid acoustic mirror that is disposed between the second substrate and the second piezoelectric layer, and a second interdigital transducer electrode that is in contact with the second piezoelectric layer. The second acoustic wave device is stacked over the first acoustic wave device. The first acoustic wave device and the second acoustic wave device are spaced by a spacer assembly such that a cavity is formed between the first acoustic wave device and the second acoustic wave device.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
