Abstract
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate and an IDT electrode. The IDT electrode includes a center area and first and second edge areas. Areas including the first and second edge areas and overlapping the areas in an acoustic-wave propagation direction include first and second expansion edge areas. First and second acoustic-velocity adjusters are provided in the first and second expansion edge areas. The first and second acoustic-velocity adjusters respectively includes first and second end portions and third and fourth end portions. The first to fourth end portions are located at outer sides of the first and second edge areas. End portions in at least one of two pairs including a pair of first and third end portions and a pair of second and fourth end portions do not overlap each other in a direction in which electrode fingers extend.
