METHODS OF PLASMA DICING BULK ACOUSTIC WAVE COMPONENTS
Aspects of this disclosure relate to methods of manufacturing bulk acoustic wave components. Such methods include plasma dicing to singulate individual bulk acoustic wave components. A buffer layer can be formed over a substrate of bulk acoustic wave components such that streets are exposed. The bulk acoustic wave components can be plasma diced along the exposed streets to thereby singulate the bulk acoustic wave components

EPITAXIAL GROWTH OF ALUMINUM ON ALUMINUM-NITRIDE COMPOUNDS
Apparatus and associated methods relate to forming an epitaxial layer of aluminum on an aluminum-nitride compound. The aluminum is epitaxially grown on the crystalline aluminum-nitride compound by maintaining temperature of a crystalline aluminum-nitride compound below a cluster-favoring temperature threshold within a vacuum chamber. Then, the crystalline aluminum-nitride compound is exposed to atoms of elemental aluminum for a predetermined time duration. The aluminum is epitaxially grown in this fashion for a predetermined time duration so as to produce a layer of epitaxial aluminum of a predetermined thickness. Such epitaxially-grown mono-crystalline aluminum has a lower resistivity than poly-crystalline aluminum.
