Abstract
An object of the present disclosure is to provide an elastic wave resonator having a high Q value, and producing little or no unwanted spurious signals. In order to achieve the object, an elastic wave resonator according to the present disclosure includes a piezoelectric substrate and an IDT electrode. The IDT electrode has an apodization-weighting portion in which a staggered section width decreases toward an end portion of the IDT electrode in an elastic wave propagation direction. The electrode finger pitch of the IDT electrode decreases toward an end portion of the IDT electrode in an end portion, in the elastic wave propagation direction, of a staggered region of the IDT electrode.
