ABSTRACT:
An acoustic wave device has: a piezoelectric body; an interdigital electrode that is arranged on the piezoelectric body and excites an acoustic wave; and a dielectric layer that is arranged on the piezoelectric body so as to cover the interdigital electrode. The dielectric layer includes a composition changing portion made up of a medium where propagation velocity of a transverse wave continuously increases upward. With this configuration, it is possible to shift a spurious radiation by a high-order mode that propagates inside the dielectric layer to a higher frequency, so as to reduce an influence of the spurious radiation by the high-order mode.
