Abstract
To provide an elastic wave device that is small sized and in which a frequency fluctuation due to a change with time hardly occurs, and an electronic component using the above elastic wave device. A trapping energy mode portionprovided in an elastic wave waveguidemade of a piezoelectric material excites a second elastic wave being an elastic wave in a trapping energy mode by a specific frequency component included in a first elastic wave being an elastic wave such as a SAW propagated from a first propagation mode portion, and a cutoff portionprovided in a peripheral region of the trapping energy mode portionhas a cutoff frequency being a frequency higher than that of the second elastic wave. A second propagation mode portion mode-converts the second elastic wave leaked through the cutoff portion to a third elastic wave being the elastic wave in the propagation mode to propagate the third elastic wave.
