Abstract
A vibrator that includes a silicon substrate, an electrode facing a surface of the silicon substrate, and a piezoelectric body between the silicon substrate and the electrode and that produces contour vibration in a plane along the surface of the silicon substrate in accordance with a voltage applied to the electrode. The vibrator includes one or more substantially rectangular vibration regions each having a long side parallel to a node of the contour vibration of the piezoelectric body and a short side orthogonal to the node of the contour vibration of the piezoelectric body and corresponding to a half-wavelength of the contour vibration. The resonator satisfies W/T≥4 and y=−0.85×(1/T)+0.57±0.05 where T is the thickness of the silicon substrate, W is the width of the short side of the vibration region, and y is the resistivity of the silicon substrate.
