ABSTRACT:
A surface acoustic wave device has superior electrical power resistance that is obtained by improving stress migration resistance of electrodes. In order to form at least one electrode, for example, on a θ rotation Y-cut (θ=36° to 42°) LiTaO3piezoelectric substrate, an underlying electrode layer including Ti or Cr as a primary component is formed, and an Al electrode layer including Al as a primary component is then formed on this underlying electrode layer. The Al electrode layer is an oriented film grown by epitaxial growth and is also a polycrystalline thin film having a twin structure in which a diffraction pattern observed in an X-ray diffraction pole figure has a plurality of symmetry centers.
