As a result, the following findings were obtained.
- the intended elastic wave should originally propagate only in the piezoelectric material substrate.
- a fine amorphous layer is formed along the bonding interface, and a portion of the elastic wave is in this amorphous layer. It was observed that the propagating elastic waves tended to propagate in the support substrate also in the support substrate beyond the amorphous layer.

Blocking at the interface with the bonding layer, and the amount of propagation in the bonding layer is reduced. As a result, the propagation at the interface between the bonding layer and the support substrate (in particular, the amorphous layer) and the propagation in the support substrate are suppressed, which is considered to increase the Q value.

を有することを特徴とする、弾性波素子の製造方法に係るものである。
弾性波は、本来、圧電性材料基板1A中のみを伝搬するべきものである。しかし、多結晶セラミックスからなる支持基板5上に圧電性材料基板1Aを直接接合したタイプの弾性波素子においては、接合界面に沿って微細なアモルファス層が生成し、弾性波の一部がこのアモルファス層中を伝搬すると共に、更にアモルファス層を超えて支持基板5内でも伝搬弾性波が支持基板中を伝搬する傾向が見られた。この結果、弾性波素子のQ値が劣化する傾向が見られた。
弾性波素子としては、弾性表面波素子やラム波素子、薄膜共振子(FBAR)などが知られている。例えば、弾性表面波素子は、圧電性材料基板の表面に、弾性表面波を励振する入力側のIDT(Interdigital Transducer)電極(櫛形電極、すだれ状電極ともいう)と弾性表面波を受信する出力側のIDT電極とを設けたものである。入力側のIDT電極に高周波信号を印加すると、電極間に電界が発生し、弾性表面波が励振されて圧電基板上を伝搬していく。そして、伝搬方向に設けられた出力側のIDT電極から、伝搬された弾性表面波を電気信号として取り出すことができる。
ビーム照射による活性化時の電圧は0.5~2.0kVとすることが好ましく、電流は50~200mAとすることが好ましい。
