Abstract

A piezoelectric thin-film resonator includes a supporting substrate. A piezoelectric thin-film is formed on the supporting substrate. A lower electrode and an upper electrode are formed with the piezoelectric thin-film therebetween. The stiffness of at least one of the lower and upper electrodes is higher than that of the piezoelectric thin-film.
