The present invention relates to piezoelectric vibrators such as a
resonator used as a timing element, discriminator, filter or the like,
and fabricating methods thereof. The piezoelectric vibrators of the
present invention may be fabricated by forming a piezoelectric body of
piezoelectric sheets, of which the thickness is controlled, and
simultaneously sintering the sheets along with cover layers, on which
grooves are formed. Also, the piezoelectric vibrator of the present
invention is fabricated by laminating the piezoelectric sheets, of which
the thickness is controlled, providing internal electrodes between the
sheets, and forming external electrodes insulated from the internal
electrodes.
