A liquid-jet head includes a passage-forming substrate. A plurality of pressure generating chambers communicate with nozzles. Piezoelectric elements each include a lower electrode, a piezoelectric layer and an upper electrode. Leads for the upper and lower electrodes are drawn out. In the liquid-jet head, the lower electrode is a common electrode continuously provided in the region facing the pressure generating chambers. At least an end on one side of the lower electrode in a direction perpendicular to an arrangement direction of the pressure generating chambers is positioned in the region facing the pressure generating chambers. The lead electrode for the lower electrode is provided outside of a region corresponding to a space between the pressure generating chambers. The lead electrode for the lower electrode is connected through a common lead portion extended from the lower electrode.

Provided is an actuator device including piezoelectric elements which are displaceably provided on a substrate. Each piezoelectric element is formed of a lower electrode, a piezoelectric layer and an upper electrode. In the actuator device, longitudinal end portions of the upper electrode define longitudinal end portions of a piezoelectric active portion to be a substantial driver of the piezoelectric element. The lower electrode and the piezoelectric layer are provided continuously to the longitudinal outside of the piezoelectric active portion. Regions of the piezoelectric layer outside of the piezoelectric active portion are formed so that thin film portions may have a thin thickness.
