Abstract

A piezoelectric resonator includes a base plate and a strip-type, energy trapping piezoelectric resonator chip mounted on the base plate. The piezoelectric resonator chip includes a piezoelectric chip plate and a pair of electrode patterns formed on the opposed main surfaces of the piezoelectric chip plate. One main surface of the piezoelectric chip plate faces the base plate and is parallel therewith, and a conductive layer is formed on each end of the main surface facing the base plate. The thickness of the conductive layer is greater than that of the electrode pattern so that the electrode pattern is separated from the base plate. The conductive layer is directly mounted onto a conductive portion of the base plate, so as to electrically connect the electrode pattern and the conductive portion of the base plate.
