Elastic wave element and electronic apparatus using same

摘要

An acoustic wave element includes a piezoelectric body, first and second interdigital transducer (IDT) electrodes provided on an upper surface of the piezoelectric body, and a first dielectric layer provided on the upper surface of the piezoelectric body to cover the first and second IDT electrodes. The first dielectric layer has a first part directly above the first IDT electrode and a second part directly above the second IDT electrode. The height of an upper surface of the second part of the first dielectric layer is larger than the height of an upper surface of the first part of the first dielectric layer. This acoustic wave element has a preferable temperature characteristic and electromechanical coupling factor.
