The authors report 3.5 GHz bulk acoustic wave resonators with an observed k2eff in the range of 14.2 to 16%, which the authors believe to be amongst the highest reported for a Sc mole fraction of 28%. The measured Qp is as high as 951 at 3.5 GHz, which is 3.8 times higher than recently reported for resonators at comparable Sc mole fractions. A high Qmax of 1070 combined with the high k2eff achieves the highest reported FOM at 158 for a Sc mole fraction of 28%. Furthermore, randomly selected 3.5 GHz devices mounted on evaluation PCB boards were power tested and damaged at CW power levels between +40 dBm and +41.5 dBm, indicating high power performance capability.
