Abstract

An apparatus includes a piezoelectric thin film suspended above a carrier substrate, where the piezoelectric thin film is of one of lithium niobate (LiNbO3) or lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) adapted to propagate an acoustic wave in a Lamb wave mode excited by a component of an electric field that is oriented in a longitudinal direction along a length of the piezoelectric thin film. A signal electrode is disposed on, and in physical contact with, the piezoelectric thin film and oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. A ground electrode disposed on, and in physical contact with, the piezoelectric thin film and oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, where the ground electrode is separated from the signal electrode by a gap comprising a longitudinal distance and in which the acoustic wave resonates. A release window is formed within the piezoelectric thin film adjacent to the ground electrode.
