<p>A composite substrate according to the present invention includes a piezoelectric substrate that is a single-crystal lithium tantalate or lithium niobate substrate, a support substrate that is a single-crystal silicon substrate, and an amorphous layer joining together the piezoelectric substrate and the support substrate. The amorphous layer contains 3 to 14 atomic percent of argon. The amorphous layer includes, in order from the piezoelectric substrate toward the composite substrate, a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. The first layer contains a larger amount of a constituent element (such as tantalum) of the piezoelectric substrate than the second and third layers. The third layer contains a larger amount of a constituent element (silicon) of the support substrate than the first and second layers. The second layer contains a larger amount of argon than the first and third layers.</p> |
