Zusammenfassung:To provide a piezoelectric element in which the influence of residual stress in a piezoelectric film is suppressed and which has an improved signal-to-noise ratio.SOLUTION: The piezoelectric element comprise a diaphragm 2 in which piezoelectric films 5a, 5b supported by a support substrate 3 are divided by a slit 1 of a desired shape. An extendable film 10 is arranged to cover the slit 1. The extendable film 10 comprises a first covering portion 10a which covers a part of one side of the diaphragm 2, a second covering portion 10b which covers a part of the other side of the diaphragm 2, and a connecting portion 10c which penetrates the diaphragm 2 and is connected to the first covering portion 10a and the second covering portion 10b.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】圧電膜の残留応力の影響を抑制するとともに、高感度で信号雑音比を改善した圧電素子を提供する。【解決手段】圧電素子は、支持基板3に支持された圧電膜5a、5bを所望の形状のスリット1で区画した振動板2を備え、スリット1を覆うように伸縮膜10を配置する。この伸縮膜10は、振動板2の一方の面の一部を覆う第1の被覆部10aと、振動板2の他方の面の一部を覆う第2の被覆部10bと、振動板2を貫通して第1の被覆部10aと第2の被覆部10bとに接続する連結部10cとを備えている。【選択図】図1
