ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a filter operating with bulk acoustic waves, comprising at least one first resonator and at least one second resonator. In the at least one first and second resonator, a longitudinal acoustic mode is capable of propagation, for which normal dispersion is adjusted in the first resonator and abnormal dispersion in the second resonator by selection of the material and the relative layer thicknesses. In particular, the power compatibility of the filter at the higher frequency edge of its passband can be improved.
