Nonconventional Tether Structure for Quality Factor Enhancement of Thin-Film-Piezoelectric-on-Si MEMS Resonator

This article presents a new design of supporting tethers through the concept of force distribution. The transmitted force applied on tethers will be distributed on the new tether design area, resulting in low acoustic energy transferred to anchor boundaries and stored energy enhancement. This techni...
