Abstract: A piezo-electric element includes a piezo-electric element part, a support part, and a stretchable film. The piezo-electric element part includes a piezo-electric film and electrodes between which the piezo-electric film is sandwiched in a thickness direction. The support part supports a peripheral portion of the piezo-electric element part. The stretchable film is provided in an oscillation region located inside of the peripheral portion of the piezo-electric element part. The stretchable film also has a higher elasticity than that of the piezo-electric element part.

Abstract: A piezoelectric thin film is formed through sputtering and consists essentially of scandium aluminum nitride. The carbon atomic content is 2.5 at % or less. When producing the piezoelectric thin film, scandium and aluminum are sputtered simultaneously on a substrate from a scandium aluminum alloy target material having a carbon atomic content of 5 at % or less in an atmosphere where at least nitrogen gas exists. The sputtering may be conducted also by applying an ion beam on an opposing surface of the alloy target material at an oblique angle. Moreover, aluminum and scandium may be also sputtered simultaneously on the substrate from an Sc target material and an Al target material. As a result, a piezoelectric thin film which exhibits excellent piezoelectric properties and a method for the same can be provided.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an element forming wafer includes the steps of: forming a thin layer on a semiconductor wafer having a plurality of chip forming regions; and adjusting stress generated in an element forming portion of the thin layer to have a specified value. The thin layer constitutes an element in each of the plurality of chip forming regions. The step of adjusting the stress includes: arranging a resist on the thin layer; exposing the resist to light using a photomask having openings; forming openings in the resist by developing the resist; and performing ion-implantation using the resist as a mask. The photomask used during the step of exposing the resist to light has a ratio of the openings that is adjusted based on the stress generated in the element forming portion.

Abstract: A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor includes a surface acoustic wave material and a comb-teeth electrode. The surface acoustic wave material is to be arranged at a place where the surface acoustic wave material is distorted by physical quantity such as stress. The comb-teeth electrode is arranged on the surface of the surface acoustic wave material to excite a surface acoustic wave to the surface acoustic wave material. The surface acoustic wave material has a sapphire board and a ScAlN film arranged on a surface of the sapphire board.
