Abstract

IDT electrodes are arranged on a piezoelectric substrate along a propagation direction of a surface acoustic wave whereas reflectors are each interposed between a respective pair of IDT electrodes, the reflectors each including four or more electrode fingers extended perpendicularly to the propagation direction. An electrode-finger pitch 'a' of the reflector is progressively decreased from the opposite ends of the reflector toward the center thereof. Frequencies allowed to pass through a pass band may be controlled by varying the electrode-finger pitch. Thus is provided a surface acoustic wave device featuring a wide-band transmission performance.
