ABSTRACT:
Electrode layers22A-22C,24A-24C are formed on both main surfaces of each of piezoelectric layers20A,20B. Voltages of different polarities are respectively applied to the electrode layers next to each other on the same main surface and to the electrode layers opposing to each other via the piezoelectric layer. Projection forms30, 32are formed in respective edges of the second electrode layers22B,24B, each of which extends into the opposite area. Through-holes are formed in the piezoelectric layer20A,20B, in positions off a division line38. The electrode layers22A-22C are connected together by the through-holes26A,26B and the projection form30, to have an equal potential. Those are lead from the diaphragm to the outside, thus reducing the overall thickness.
