Abstract

An acoustic wave device includes a high-acoustic-velocity layer, a piezoelectric layer made of lithium tantalate, and an interdigital transducer electrode that are successively laminated. An acoustic velocity of a bulk wave propagating in the high-acoustic-velocity layer is higher than an acoustic velocity of an acoustic wave propagating in the piezoelectric layer, and an acoustic velocity Vsub of a fast transversal bulk wave propagating in the high-acoustic-velocity layer satisfies Vsh0≤Vsub≤Vsp with respect to an acoustic velocity Vsh0 of an SH0 mode and an acoustic velocity Vsp of a mode becoming a spurious of which acoustic velocity is not lower than the acoustic velocity of the SH0 mode, wherein the acoustic velocity Vsh0 and the acoustic velocity Vsp is obtained from Eq. (1).
