ABSTRACT:
Provided is a device of a high-frequency resonator using Lamb wave type elastic wave having excellent frequency temperature characteristics, the device having a significantly small frequency change, and including an interdigital transducer for generating at least one Lamb wave type elastic wave, or the interdigital transducer and a reflector, arranged on a quartz substrate. The cut angle of the quartz substrate and a propagation direction of the Lamb wave type elastic wave expressed in Euler angles (λ, μ, θ) satisfy any one of following expressions (Expressions 1 to 3):in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?λ=90°, μ=17° to 21° or μ=159° to 163°, θ=0° to 10° (Expression 1)in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?λ=210°, μ=17° to 21° or μ=159° to 163°, θ=0° to 10° (Expression 2)in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?λ=330°, μ=17° to 21° or μ=159° to 163°, θ=0° to 10°.
