A method of manufacturing a thin film piezoelectric element, wherein main electrode layer, piezoelectric thin film, and opposed electrode layer respectively having specified shapes are first formed on first substrate and second substrate, and after that, the opposed electrodes are opposed and bonded to each other, and insulating resin layer is formed over the peripheral portion thereof, and then the second substrate is removed, the insulating resin layer is etched, and connecting electrode pad is formed, and finally, the first substrate is removed to obtain a completely separated thin film piezoelectric element. By this method, it is possible to improve the reproducibility of shapes and to prevent trouble such as shorting between the electrodes which hold the piezoelectric thin film, thereby making it possible to provide a thin film piezoelectric element that may assure high yield without variation in piezoelectric characteristics, and its manufacturing method.

A piezoelectric driving device of the present invention prevents a short circuit from occurring between electrode metallic films even if bonding-wire is performed. The piezoelectric driving device is a piezoelectric driving device in which a piezoelectric thin plate is joined to one side of a substrate, and a terminal electrode for applying a signal for expanding or contracting the piezoelectric thin plate is further formed on the plane. The terminal electrode is formed on one side of the substrate via a piezoelectric-member pedestal separated from the piezoelectric thin plate.

A first counter electrode and a second counter electrode, for electrically coupling a first piezoelectric element unit and a second piezoelectric element unit, for composing a thin film piezoelectric element are common floating electrodes. A first principal electrode film and a second principal electrode film of each piezoelectric element unit are connected, and a voltage is applied between the two piezoelectric element units. As a result, by the wiring of two terminals only without using grounding electrode wiring, the first piezoelectric element unit and second piezoelectric element unit can be driven, so that the wiring process may be substantially simplified.

A piezoelectric film device has a piezoelectric film element and a power supply circuit. The piezoelectric film element is formed of a first electrode, a second electrode, and a piezoelectric film that is sandwiched between the first electrode and second electrode and has a polarization vector in the film thickness direction. The polarization vector is inverted by application of a predetermined voltage or higher through the first electrode and second electrode. The power supply circuit supplies voltage for inverting the polarization vector. The piezoelectric film has each different lattice constant depending on the direction of the polarization vector. The piezoelectric film device keeps a different displacement position corresponding to the direction of the polarization vector even when the voltage application is stopped.
