US Patent 11581869 Bulk acoustic wave resonator with mass loading layer

Aspects of this disclosure relate to bulk acoustic wave resonators. A bulk acoustic wave resonator includes a patterned mass loading layer that affects a resonant frequency of the bulk acoustic wave resonator. The patterned mass loading layer can have a duty factor in a range from 0.2 to 0.8 in a main acoustically active region of the bulk acoustic wave resonator. Related filters, acoustic wave dies, radio frequency modules, wireless communications devices, and methods are disclosed.
