Abstract

An acoustic wave filter includes acoustic wave resonators including a piezoelectric substrate and an IDT electrode including first and second electrode fingers. An intersecting region of the first and second electrode fingers includes a central region and first and second edge regions on outer side portions of the central region. An acoustic velocity in the first and second edge regions is lower than that in the central region, and the acoustic wave resonators include a first acoustic wave resonator with a width in the first and second edge regions larger than a width in the central region, and a second acoustic wave resonator including at least one of an acoustic velocity reducing film and an acoustic velocity increasing film in the central region, such that an acoustic velocity in the first and second edge regions is lower than acoustic velocity in the center region.
