1. An acoustic resonator device comprising: a bond substrate; a bonding support layer overlying the bond substrate; a support layer overlying the bonding support layer; a reflector structure overlying the support layer, wherein the reflector structure includes at least a pair of layers having a low acoustic impedance layer and a high acoustic impedance layer; a first electrode overlying the reflector structure and a portion of the support layer; a piezoelectric film overlying the support layer, the first electrode, and the reflector structure, the piezoelectric film having an electrode contact via; a second electrode formed overlying the piezoelectric film; a top metal formed overlying the piezoelectric film, the top metal being physically coupled to the first electrode through the electrode contact via; a first contact metal formed overlying a portion of the second electrode and the piezoelectric film; a second contact metal formed overlying a portion of the top metal and the piezoelectric film; and a passivation layer formed overlying the piezoelectric film, the second electrode, and the top metal.
