Abstract

A surface acoustic wave device comprises an elastic substrate having a major surface with a given crystal orientation and having a positive temperature coefficient of delay (TCD), and AlN film deposited on the elastic substrate so that piezoelectric axis of the AlN film has a predetermined direction with respect to the major surface of the elastic substrate having a negative TCD, and electrodes provided on the AlN film or between the elastic substrate and the AlN film.
