Abstract
A resonator includes a vibration portion that has a substrate having a main surface, a lower electrode on the main surface of the substrate, a piezoelectric film on the lower electrode, and an upper electrode on the piezoelectric film. A frame surrounds at least part of the vibration portion. Opening grooves having different widths in a first direction in a plan view of the main surface are provided in a periphery of the vibration portion. In a plan view of the main surface, the upper electrode is provided so as to be spaced from an outer edge of the substrate by a gap which is along the first direction, such that a length of the gap in a region where a width of the opening groove is large is larger than a length of the gap in a region where a width of the opening groove is small.
