There are disclosed acoustic resonators and radio frequency filter devices. A back surface of a single-crystal piezoelectric plate is attached to a surface of a substrate except for portions of the piezoelectric plate forming a plurality of diaphragms, each of which spans a respective cavity in the substrate. A conductor pattern is formed on the front surface, the conductor pattern including interdigital transducers (IDTs) of one or more pairs of sub-resonators, each pair consisting of two sub-resonators. The IDT of each sub-resonator includes interleaved fingers disposed on a respective diaphragm. The piezoelectric plate and the IDTs are configured such that respective radio frequency signals applied to each IDT excite respective shear primary acoustic modes in the respective diaphragms. The two sub-resonators of each pair of sub-resonators are positioned symmetrically about a central axis.
