Abstract

The piezoelectric vibrator of the invention comprises a base substrate, a lid substrate in which cavity recesses are formed and which is bonded to the base substrate in such a state that the recesses face the base substrate, a piezoelectric vibration member bonded to the upper face of the base substrate in such a state that it is housed in the cavity formed of the recess between the base substrate and the lid substrate, an external electrode formed on the lower face of the base substrate, a through-electrode formed in and through the base substrate and electrically connected with the external electrode with keeping the airtightness inside the cavity, and a routing electrode formed on the upper face of the base substrate to electrically connect the through-electrode to the bonded piezoelectric vibration member; wherein the through-electrode is formed through hardening of a paste containing a plurality of metal fine particles and a plurality of glass beads.
