Abstract
A surface acoustic wave device includes: a pair of comb-like electrodes formed on a piezoelectric substrate, each of which includes electrode fingers, dummy electrode fingers and a bus bar to which the electrode fingers and the dummy electrode fingers are connected, the electrode fingers and the dummy electrode fingers of one of the pair of comb-like electrodes facing the dummy electrode fingers and the electrode fingers of the other com-like electrode, respectively; and additional films extending in the form of a strip in a first direction in which the electrode fingers are arranged side by side, each of the additional films covering at least parts of gaps defined by ends of the electrode fingers of one of the pair of comb-like electrodes and ends of the dummy electrode fingers of the other comb-like electrode.
