Abstract

A cavity structure of a bulk acoustic resonator and a manufacturing process. The cavity structure comprises a substrate and a cavity formed on the substrate, a support layer is arranged on the substrate to form the cavity in a surrounding manner, a release channel in communication with the cavity is formed above the substrate in a same layer with the cavity, and the release channel extends, in parallel to the substrate, in a peripheral area of the cavity. There is no need to manufacture a release hole, which simplifies the manufacturing process of the resonator, thereby avoiding weakening the performance of the resonator due to damage to the structure of the piezoelectric layer around the electrode layer when manufacturing the release hole.
