Abstract
A method of manufacturing a quartz crystal element includes preparing a quartz crystal wafer having a predetermined cutting angle with respect to a crystal axis of a quartz crystal, forming a first resist film having a first tilted part on a first surface of the quartz crystal wafer and dry-etching the first resist film with the quartz crystal, forming a first tilted surface by dry-etching the quartz crystal wafer from the first surface side, forming a second resist film having a second tilted part on a second surface of the quartz crystal wafer and dry-etching the second resist film with the quartz crystal, and forming a second tilted surface tilted by dry-etching the quartz crystal wafer from the second surface side. The quartz crystal element provided with the first tilted surface and the second tilted surface, and having a cutting angle different from the predetermined cutting angle is formed.
