초록

In this paper, the resonance characteristics of ZnO-based film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices with high-quality multi-layer reflectors are proposed. The ultrathin Cr film $(300\;\AA-thick)$ between $SiO_2$ film and W film is formed by a sputtering-deposition in order to enhance the adherence at their interfaces. The resonance frequency was observed to vary with the number of the reflectors. This seems to be attributed to the change in the effective thickness of the ZnO film. Also, increasing the number of layers has led to a significant improvement of the series/parallel quality factor.
