1. A method of manufacturing a bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator, comprising:
forming a lower electrode above a substrate;
forming a nitrogen layer on an upper surface of the lower electrode through nitrogen (N2) plasma surface treatment;
forming a piezoelectric layer made of an AlScN material above the nitrogen layer to align an upper surface of the piezoelectric layer to an N polarity; and
forming an upper electrode above the piezoelectric layer aligned to the N polarity.
