Capacitors adapted for acoustic resonance cancellation

1. A device, comprising:

a multilayered tunable dielectric capacitor, wherein said multilayers of tunable dielectric are adapted to be DC biased to reduce the dielectric constant; and

wherein said DC bias is arranged so that the number of layers of tunable dielectric biased positively is equal to the number of layers of tunable dielectric biased negatively.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein said multilayers are an even number of layers.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein said even number of layers is 2.

4. The device of claim 3 , wherein said two layers produce acoustic waves of the opposite phase which cancel.

5. The device of claim 3 , further comprising a center plate and two outer plates defining the two layers and wherein a DC voltage is applied from the center plate to the outer two plates and wherein the DC is capable of being either positive or negative.

6. The device of claim 5 , wherein the addition of a DC bias causes said two tunable layers to vibrate in response to an RF signal and said center plate electrode will vibrate while said outer electrodes are still.

7. The device of claim 1 , wherein by placing a first capacitor layer on top of at least one additional capacitor layer and sharing a common electrode in between the two, the vibration of said first layer is coupled to a corresponding antiphase vibration of said at least one additional layer.

8. The device of claim 1 , wherein each layer of the tunable dielectric is isolated from another layer of the tunable dielectric by an electrode.

9. The device of claim 8 , wherein said tunable dielectric material comprises barium strontium titanate (BST).
