Abstract
In a composite substrate, a back surface of a piezoelectric substrate and a front surface of a support substrate are bonded to each other with an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer includes a swelling portion at an outer peripheral area thereof, and the piezoelectric substrate is bonded to the support substrate in an area excluding the swelling portion. Accordingly, air bubbles do not easily enter between the swelling portion of the adhesive layer and the piezoelectric substrate, and separations caused by the air bubbles can be prevented. As a result, the support substrate and the piezoelectric substrate can be reliably bonded to each other with the adhesive layer including the swelling portion in the outer peripheral area thereof.
