    摘要: A tunable Q resonator using a capacitive-piezoelectric transducer provides a flexible top electrode above an AlN resonator. The top electrode can be pulled electrostatically towards the resonator and substrate, forming a frictional contact with either the resonator or the combined resonator-electrode structure to the substrate, allowing for electrical tuning the Q of the resonator. With a sufficient electrostatic bias voltage Vb, the resonator may be completely turned OFF, allowing for an integrated switchable AlN resonator. Such switchable resonator may be integrated into a radio frequency (RF) front end as a digitally selectable band pass filter element, obviating the need for ancillary micromechanical switches in the signal path. The device has been demonstrated with a Q approaching 9,000, together with ON/OFF switchability and electromechanical coupling up to 0.63%. Flexible positioning of the top electrode allows for actively controlling the series resonant frequency of the resonator through changes in capacitive coupling.

    摘要: A filter for electric signals has a substrate, a vibrating body capable of vibrating with at least two antipodes deflected in phase opposition relative to the substrate and has electrodes connected to a signal input and a signal output for electric excitation and for detection of the vibration of the vibrating body. The electrodes for detecting the vibration, each assigned to antipodes deflected in phase opposition, are connected to two separate terminals of the signal output.

    摘要: A tunable electromicromechanical resonator structure incorporates an electrostatic actuator which permits reduction or enhancement of the resonant frequency of the structure. The actuator consists of two sets of opposed electrode fingers, each set having a multiplicity of spaced, parallel fingers. One set is mounted on a movable portion of the resonator structure and one set is mounted on an adjacent fixed base on substrate, with the fingers in opposed relationship and their adjacent ends spaced apart by a gap. An adjustable bias voltage across the sets of electrodes adjusts the resonant frequency of the movable structure.
