Abstract
A method of manufacturing a substrate for an acoustic wave device includes: a substrate joining step of joining a piezoelectric material layer to a surface on one side of a support substrate; a grinding step of grinding the piezoelectric material layer; a removal amount map forming step of measuring in-plane thickness of the piezoelectric material layer by an optical thickness meter, and calculating a removal amount for the piezoelectric material layer for adjusting thickness variability of the piezoelectric material layer to or below a threshold on the basis of each coordinate in the plane, to form a removal amount map; a laser processing step of applying a pulsed laser beam of such a wavelength as to be absorbed in the piezoelectric material layer, to selectively remove the piezoelectric material layer, based on the removal amount map; and a polishing step of polishing the surface of the piezoelectric material layer.
