A surface acoustic wave (SAW) device that is suitable for mass production and that has excellent operational performance at the superhigh-frequency range. The SAW device comprises (a) a diamond layer 3; (b) a ZnO layer 4, with a thickness of tz, formed on the diamond layer 3; (c) interdigital transducers (IDTs) 5, which excite and receive a SAW, formed on the ZnO layer 4; and (d) an SiO2 layer 6, with a thickness of ts, formed on the ZnO layer 4 so that the SiO2 layer can cover the IDTs 5. The structure of the SAW device is determined by specific numeric ranges of the parameters kh1 and kh2, which are given in equations kh1=3.2pi.(tz/lambda) and kh2=3.2pi.(ts/lambda), where lambda signifies the wavelength of the fundamental wave of the second Sezawa mode of the SAW. The SAW device uses the third harmonic of the second Sezawa mode of the SAW excited.
