Vibrator, oscillator, electronic device, and moving object
A MEMS vibrator includes: a substrate; a base portion which is disposed on the substrate; and a plurality of vibration portions which extends in a direction that intersects with a normal line of the substrate from the base portion. In a planar view, when a length of the vibration portion in a direction in which the vibration portion extends from the base portion is L, and a length of the vibration portion in a direction that intersects with a direction in which the vibration portion extends from the base portion is W, a dimension ratio (L/W) of the vibration portion satisfies a relationship in which 0.2≦(L/W)≦7.0.
1. A vibrator, comprising:
a substrate;
a base portion which is disposed above the substrate;
a vibration portion which extends in a direction that intersects with a normal line of the substrate from the base portion; and
a plurality of electrodes which each face one of the base portion and vibration portion, wherein the electrodes are disposed between the substrate and the base portion or the substrate and the vibration portion, and the plurality of electrodes are separated by a separation portion,
wherein, in a planar view of the substrate, when a length of the vibration portion in a direction in which the vibration portion extends from the base portion is L, and a length of the vibration portion in a direction that intersects with a direction in which the vibration portion extends from the base portion is W, a dimension ratio (L/W) of the vibration portion satisfies a relationship in which 0.2≦(L/W)≦7.0, and
