Abstract
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate made of a lithium niobate material having the Euler angles (φ, θ, ψ), an electrode disposed on the piezoelectric substrate for exciting a major acoustic wave of a wavelength λ, and a protective layer disposed on the piezoelectric substrate to cover the electrode. The protective layer has a thickness greater than 0.27λ. The Euler angles satisfy −100°≦θ≦−60°; 1.193φ−2°≦ψ≦1.193φ+2°; and either ψ≦−2φ−3° or −2φ+3°≦ψ.
