Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a surface acoustic wave device having a base substrate member, made of an insulating material, that has a housing portion composed of a concave portion having an opening portion at a top thereof and a surface acoustic wave element that has a flat insulator and comb-shaped electrodes provided on one surface of the insulator, the method of manufacturing a surface acoustic wave device comprising: interposing a thermosetting adhesive between the insulator that is inserted in the housing portion while the comb-shaped electrodes are directed upward and a bottom portion of the housing portion; curing the adhesive by heating in a state in which a conductive member is disposed near the opening portion to come in contact with the comb-shaped electrodes; cooling the adhesive and separating the conductive member from the comb-shaped electrodes; and wherein, on a top surface of the conductive member opposite to the comb-shaped electrodes, a flat-plate support member made of a metal is disposed to support the conductive member.
