    Abstract

    The discovery of enhanced piezoelectricity in solid
    solutions of AlN and ScN is certainly one of the most important
    events in piezoelectric MEMS. As compared to pure AlN, it
    brought a crucial factor 2 to 3 improvement in a number of figures
    of merit governing the performance of MEMS devices. The aim of
    this contribution is to give a short overview on actual topics in
    processing, properties, and applications in RF filters and sensors.
