Abstract

A bulk acoustic wave resonator includes a substrate, and a stack that is supported by the substrate. The stack includes a first electrode, a multilayer buffer, a piezoelectric layer, and a second electrode. The multilayer buffer is disposed between the first electrode and the piezoelectric layer, and the piezoelectric layer is disposed between the multilayer buffer and the second electrode. The multilayer buffer includes two or more pairs of alternating layers. A first pair of the two or more pairs include a first layer of crystalline material having a first lattice constant, and a second layer of crystalline material having a lattice constant that is distinct from the first lattice constant.
