Abstract

An elastic wave device has a convex portion on the top face of a first dielectric layer over an IDT electrode when the elastic wave device has a structure of a boundary wave device in which a film thickness of a second dielectric layer is not less than 1.6 times as much as a pitch width of the IDT electrode. This convex portion increases an electromechanical coupling coefficient of SH wave that is the major wave. Accordingly, good filter characteristics can be easily achieved.
