A highly compact piezoelectric resonator having excellent resonant characteristics and very small resonant resistance includes an upper electrode disposed on one of two main surfaces of a piezoelectric film and a lower electrode disposed on the other main surface of the piezoelectric film. The upper electrode includes a first external-signal extracting electrode, a first leading electrode, and three first vibrating electrodes. The lower electrode includes a second external-signal extracting electrode, a second leading electrode, and three second vibrating electrodes. The three first vibrating electrodes are arranged substantially perpendicularly to the three second vibrating electrodes via the piezoelectric film. Vibrating sections are located at positions where the first vibrating electrodes are arranged substantially perpendicularly to the second vibrating electrodes.

A measuring jig which is used to measure characteristics of a device with a nonradiative dielectric waveguide which operates in a microwave band or in a millimeter wave band. The measuring jig has a mount section on which a device with a nonradiative dielectric waveguide is to be mounted, and a converting section which connects the device to an external circuit. The converting section has a couple of parallel conductors, a dielectric strip which is disposed between the conductors and propagates a high-frequency electromagnetic wave in a specified mode, and an end surface which is formed on an end of the conductors so as to be vertical to a traveling direction of the electromagnetic wave propagated in the dielectric strip and on which an end of the dielectric strip is exposed.
