ACOUSTIC WAVE DEVICE
An acoustic wave device includes an IDT electrode and reflector electrodes on or above a piezoelectric substrate. A region in which first and second electrode fingers of the IDT electrode overlap each other in an acoustic wave propagation direction defines an intersection region. The intersection region includes a center region and first and second edge regions on both sides of the center region. Dielectric films extend from the first and second edge regions to outer side regions in the acoustic wave propagation direction of the reflector electrodes via the reflector electrodes.

ACOUSTIC WAVE DEVICE
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate and an IDT electrode on the piezoelectric substrate and including electrode fingers. A portion where adjacent electrode fingers of the IDT electrode overlap each other in an acoustic wave propagation direction is an intersecting region. The intersecting region includes a central region located in a central portion in a direction in which the electrode fingers extend and first and second edge regions on both sides of the central region in the direction in which the electrode fingers extend. The acoustic wave device further includes dielectric films between the piezoelectric substrate and the electrode fingers in the first and second edge regions. The dielectric films include at least one of hafnium oxide, niobium oxide, tungsten oxide, or cerium oxide.

ACOUSTIC WAVE DEVICE
An acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate and an IDT electrode. The IDT electrode includes a center area and first and second edge areas. Areas including the first and second edge areas and overlapping the areas in an acoustic-wave propagation direction include first and second expansion edge areas. First and second acoustic-velocity adjusters are provided in the first and second expansion edge areas. The first and second acoustic-velocity adjusters respectively includes first and second end portions and third and fourth end portions. The first to fourth end portions are located at outer sides of the first and second edge areas. End portions in at least one of two pairs including a pair of first and third end portions and a pair of second and fourth end portions do not overlap each other in a direction in which electrode fingers extend.

Switch module
A switch module switches among a first state where first and second frequency bands are used in parallel, a second state where only the first frequency band is used, and a third state where none of the first and second frequency bands is used, and includes first, second, and third filters and an antenna switch. In the first state, a common terminal and the first and second filters are connected and the common terminal and the third filter are not connected. In the second state, the common terminal and the first and third filters are connected, and the common terminal and the second filter are not connected.
