Abstract
A surface acoustic wave resonator includes: an IDT which is disposed on a quartz substrate with Euler angles of (−1°≦φ≦1°, 117°≦θ≦142°, 42.79°≦|ψ|≦49.57°), which is made of Al or alloy including Al as a main component and which excites a surface acoustic wave in an upper mode of a stop band; and an inter-electrode-finger groove which is formed by recessing the quartz substrate between electrode fingers which form the IDT. Here, the following expression is satisfied:0.01  (1),where λ represents a wavelength of the surface acoustic wave and G represents a depth of the inter-electrode-finger groove. The depth G of the inter-electrode-finger groove and a line occupancy η of the IDT satisfy the following expression: and a number of pairs N of the electrode fingers in the IDT is in the range of the following expression:160≦220  (19).
