A piezoelectric oscillation element (1) comprising a piezoelectric substrate (10), a first conductor film (21) formed on one main surface of the piezoelectric substrate (10), a second conductor film (22) formed on the other main surface, and grounding terminals (31a, 31b) formed on the side surfaces of the piezoelectric substrate (10). Specified capacitances are respectively formed between the first and second conductor films (21, 22) formed on the main surfaces of the piezoelectric substrate (10) and the grounding terminals (31a, 31b) formed on the side surfaces thereof. Larger capacitances can be formed than when electrodes are disposed on the same main surface in proximity of each other to form a capacitance, whereby no adverse effect is given to thickness vibration occurring between the first and second conductor films (21, 22).
