Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the tuning fork oscillator, three electrodes are formed on a piezoelectric substrate for driving and detection. When connecting, the possibility of short circuit between electrodes due to conductive adhesive increases, and insulation reliability decreases
In addition, when the width of the divided part between these electrodes is wide, the electrode area of ​​the leg is reduced, the driving efficiency when driving the tuning fork oscillator and the output efficiency of the signal caused by the displacement of the leg are reduced, the oscillator sensitivity is reduced, and the S / N ratio worse

Abstract

Provided are a piezoelectric vibrator and a high efficient method manufacturing the same. The piezoelectric vibrator (70, 72) includes a tuning-fork vibrator (78) having a base (74) and legs (76a, 76b). The piezoelectric vibrator (70, 72) is formed as a laminate of two piezoelectric substrates (80, 82), an intermediate electrode (84), surface electrodes (86, 88, 90), and a whole surface electrode (94). The surface electrodes (86, 88, 90) are divided by division portions (92a, 92b) extending from the base (74) to the legs (76a, 76b). The division portions (92a, 92b) are formed wider at portions joining to a circuit board than at the other portions. The division portions (92a, 92b) are formed by dividing an electrode formed on the whole surface of a piezoelectric plate constituting the vibrator (78) by means of a dicer, or by dividing the electrode by means of laser irradiation or etching. The tuning-fork vibrator exhibits good insulation reliability at the time of mounting on a circuit board, and has a high vibrator sensitivity and a high S / N ratio.
