Abstract
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate made of LiNbO3, and a dielectric film provided on the piezoelectric substrate to cover first and second IDT electrodes on the piezoelectric substrate. The first and second IDT electrodes include main electrode layers. When wave lengths determined by electrode finger pitches of the first and second IDT electrodes are λ1 and λ2, respectively, the average value thereof is λ0, λ1/λ0=1+X, and λ2/λ0=1−X, a relationship of 0.05≤X≤0.65 is satisfied. The wavelength λ1 is the longest, and the wavelength λ2 is the shortest. In Euler angles (φ, θ, ψ) of the piezoelectric substrate, φ is 0°±5°, ψ is 0°±10°, and θ satisfies Expression 1, wherein a relationship of B1<T×r≤0.10λ0 and B2<T×r≤0.10λ0 are satisfied.
