(発明の技術的背景及びその問題点)
近年LiNb3やLiTaO3等の単結晶を加工した部
品が広く弾性表面素子として用いられている。(Technical background of the invention and its problems) In recent years, parts processed from single crystals such as LiNb 3 and LiTaO 3 have been widely used as elastic surface elements.

ることが困難である。このばらつきが大きいと弾
性表面波素子の特性劣化の原因につながる。 In order to utilize these single crystals as surface acoustic wave elements, in many cases the crystal must be processed by cutting, cutting, etc. along a certain crystal plane. for example
To process a LiNbO 3 single crystal into a wafer, the crystal orientation is measured using a device that uses X-rays (Japanese Patent Publication No. 14143/1983), and the crystal orientation is returned to the processing holder and the holding angle of the crystal is determined based on the measurement data. One possible method is to correct this and perform processing. However, with this method, the crystal must be removed from the processing holder in order to measure the crystal orientation, so even if the crystal is returned to the holder and corrected, the accuracy is not sufficient, and the It is difficult to keep the variation in deviation within ±0.5°. If this variation is large, it will lead to deterioration of the characteristics of the surface acoustic wave element.

ましくない。 On the other hand, if a method is adopted in which the wafers are cut out one by one with an inner peripheral blade cutter, the crystal orientation is immediately measured, and the holding angle is corrected based on this result, the problem of variation can be solved, but LiTaO 3 and LiNbO 3 Machining a single crystal with an inner peripheral blade is not suitable for mass production, so it is not preferable.
