Abstract

Acoustic filters, resonators and methods are disclosed. An acoustic filter device includes a substrate having a surface and a single-crystal piezoelectric plate having front and back surfaces, the back surface attached to the surface of the substrate except for a portion of the piezoelectric plate forming a diaphragm that spans a cavity in the substrate. An interdigital transducer is formed on the front surface of the piezoelectric plate with interleaved fingers of the IDT disposed on the diaphragm. At least a portion of a perimeter of the cavity is curved, and the perimeter of the cavity is corner-less.
