Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A surface acoustic wave SAW (SAW) device has a substrate and a filter provided at the substrate. The filter has a plurality of interdigital transducers (IDT) electrodes arranged along a propagation direction of a SAW. Each of the plurality of IDT electrodes has an electrode finger group including a plurality of electrode fingers which extent in a direction orthogonal to the propagation direction and are arranged along the propagation direction. At least one of the plurality of IDT electrodes has a wide pitch section including an adjacent first and second electrode finger among the plurality of electrode fingers. The interval between the first electrode finger and the second electrode finger is larger than the average value of the intervals between the remaining electrode fingers of the plurality of electrode fingers.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A surface acoustic wave device, comprising: a piezoelectric substrate and a surface acoustic wave filter comprising a plurality of interdigital transducer (IDT) electrodes which are provided on the piezoelectric substrate and are arranged along a propagation direction of a surface acoustic wave, wherein each of the plurality of IDT electrodes comprises a group of electrode fingers which extend in a direction orthogonal to the propagation direction…
