PIEZOELECTRIC ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PIEZOELECTRIC ELEMENT

摘要

Provided are a piezoelectric element having high stability, which operates with high efficiency, and a method for manufacturing the piezoelectric element. The piezoelectric element (10) has a laminate structure in which a first electrode (14), a first piezoelectric film (16), a second electrode (18), an adhesion layer (20), an interlayer (22), a third electrode (24), a second piezoelectric film (26), and a fourth electrode (28) are laminated in this order on a silicon substrate (12). The interlayer (22) is formed of a material different from that of the second electrode (18) and has a thickness of 0.4 μm to 10 μm. A device having a diaphragm structure or a cantilever structure is formed by removing a part of the silicon substrate (12). The respective layers (14 to 28) laminated on the silicon substrate (12) can be formed using a thin film formation method represented by a vapor phase epitaxial method.
