ABSTRACTBarium strontium titanate solidly mounted resonators were fabricated with patterned and unpatterned acoustic Bragg reflectors on a sapphire substrate. The patterned and unpatterned solidly mounted resonator devices had acoustic Bragg reflectors consisting of Pt/SiO2/Pt/SiO2. The s-parameters of both devices were measured. The results showed that the quality factor increased for the device with the patterned acoustic Bragg reflector structure. The quality factors for the devices with patterned and unpatterned acoustic Bragg reflector structures were 54 and 115 and 28 and 86, respectively at the resonant and antiresonant frequencies. This investigation shows how an unpatterened acoustic Bragg reflector can contribute to the degradation of the overall quality factor of the device.

AbstractBarium strontium titanate solidly mounted resonators (SMR) were fabricated with three different acoustic Bragg reflectors (ABR) on a sapphire substrate. The three devices had ABR structures consisting of W/SiO2/W/SiO2, Mo/SiO2/Mo/SiO2, and Pt/SiO2/Pt/SiO2 respectively. The s-parameters of all three devices were measured. The results showed that the quality factor increased as a function of the material in the ABR structure. The quality factor for the devices with tungsten, molybdenum and platinum in the ABR structures are 101, 88, and 31, respectively. This investigation showed how the material in the ABR structure can contribute to the acoustic loss in the device.
