Abstract
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate, and an IDT electrode provided on the piezoelectric substrate. The IDT electrode includes an overlap region where first and second electrode fingers overlap each other in a first direction. The overlap region includes a central region located in a substantially central portion of the overlap region with respect to a second direction. The central region includes a low acoustic velocity portion with an acoustic velocity less than the acoustic velocity in another portion. The overlap region includes first and second low acoustic velocity regions. The first and second low acoustic velocity regions are respectively located on first-and-second-busbar sides from the central region. The IDT electrode includes first and second high acoustic velocity regions. The first and second high acoustic velocity regions are respectively located outside the first and second low acoustic velocity regions with respect to the second direction.
