摘要

A second substrate 21 composed of a material having a lower dielectric constant than that of a piezoelectric substrate 2 having a transmission-side filter region 12 and a receiving-side filter region 13 formed therein is joined to the other main surface of the piezoelectric substrate 2 , and a conductor layer 22 is formed throughout the other main surface of the second substrate 21 . The effective dielectric constant of the substrate is reduced, thereby making it possible to reduce a parasitic capacitance formed between an input electrode section 5 in the transmission-side filter region 12 and an output electrode section 6 in the receiving-side filter region 13 and to improve isolation characteristics.
