<p>A piezoelectric vibration element includes a piezoelectric substrate including (i) an excitation portion and (ii) a peripheral portion that is integrally arranged at a periphery of the excitation portion and whose thickness is smaller than that of the excitation portion. The piezoelectric vibration element further includes excitation electrodes that are arranged in a front-and-rear relationship on front and rear principal faces of the piezoelectric substrate. The excitation portion includes a first portion that is at a location of a maximum thickness of the excitation portion and a side face that is connected to (i) a principal face of the first portion and (ii) a principal face of the peripheral portion. The side face includes level difference portions having a level difference and a face that has no level difference from the principal face of the first portion to the principal face of the peripheral portion.</p> |
