The pair of interdigital transducer electrodes include an alternating region as a region where the electrode fingers connected to one busbar and the electrode fingers connected to the other busbar are alternately provided. When a region on an end portion side of the alternating region and a region including distal end portions of the plurality of electrode fingers is referred to as an edge region, a propagation velocity of a surface acoustic wave in the edge region is slower than a propagation velocity of a surface acoustic wave in the alternating region. A propagation velocity of a surface acoustic wave in a busbar region as a region where the busbar is disposed is faster than the propagation velocity of the surface acoustic wave in the alternating region.

The first bus bar is parallel to the second bus bar. The electrode fingers are divided into a first set of electrode fingers and a second set of electrode fingers. The first set of electrode fingers extend obliquely from the first bus bar towards the second bus bar. The second set of electrode fingers extend obliquely from the second bus bar towards the first bus bar, and are parallel to and interleaved with the first set of electrode fingers. By providing the electrode fingers oblique to the bus bars, spurious transverse modes may be suppressed while maintaining the quality factor, electromechanical coupling coefficient, and capacitance of the device.

The first set of electrode fingers and the second set of electrode fingers are interleaved. At least one of the first apodization edge and the second apodization edge provides a wave pattern along the length of the interdigital electrode structure.
