    摘要: A method of manufacturing an elastic wave device is provided with a lamination step of forming, on a substrate (1), a plurality of elastic wave devices, each of which includes a lower electrode (2), a piezoelectric film (3), and an upper electrode (4); a measuring step for measuring the operation frequency distribution of the elastic wave devices on the substrate (1); and an adjusting step for forming an adjusting region, in which the thickness of the elastic wave device is different from the thicknesses of other portions in a resonance portion of each elastic wave device, corresponding with the distribution of the operation frequencies. The adjusting region is formed so that the size of the area of the adjusting region of the resonator portion of each elastic wave device is different in accordance with the operation frequency distribution that is measured. Thus, the frequency characteristics of the elastic wave devices are easily adjusted by a small number of steps.

The multiple piezoelectric thin-film resonators includes a second resonator in which at least a part of an outer curved portion of the piezoelectric film of the second resonator substantially coincides with an outer curved portion of a region in which the upper electrode and the lower electrode face each other across the piezoelectric film or is further in than the outer curved portion of the region.

    摘要: A method of producing a piezoelectric thin film resonator is provided. A sacrificial layer is formed on a part of the piezoelectric film. The sacrificial layer is patterned, and thereafter an upper electrode is formed on the piezoelectric layer. The method further includes removing the sacrificial layer formed on the piezoelectric layer; and patterning the piezoelectric film. In the step of removing the sacrificial layer, the sacrificial layer is removed such that at least a portion of the periphery of the upper electrode has a reversely tapered shape that reflects the tapered portion of the sacrificial layer, and in the step of patterning the piezoelectric film, the piezoelectric film is removed such that a lower end of the reversely tapered periphery of the upper electrode is placed so as to coincide with or to be in the vicinity of an end portion of the patterned piezoelectric film.
