    Abstract: A piezoelectric transformer that includes a base and an upper layer supported by the base. The upper layer includes a first piezoelectric layer that includes the portion of the upper layer that is interposed between an output electrode and an intermediate electrode, and a second piezoelectric layer that is superposed with the first piezoelectric layer and includes the portion of the upper layer interposed between the intermediate electrode and an input electrode in at least n vibration portions. Moreover, the input electrode includes multiple input electrode pieces and the output electrode includes multiple output electrode pieces. In addition, wiring lines are routed such that voltages of opposite phases can be respectively applied to a first input electrode piece group and a second input electrode piece group with the potential of the intermediate electrode serving as a reference.

    Abstract: A piezoelectric device that includes a substrate defining an opening therein; a piezoelectric layer arranged above the substrate such that at least part of the piezoelectric layer extends over the opening and forms a membrane part that is not superimposed with the substrate; a lower electrode arranged below the piezoelectric layer in at least the membrane part; and an upper electrode that is arranged above the piezoelectric layer so as to face at least part of the lower electrode with the piezoelectric layer interposed therebetween in the membrane part. A heater is arranged above the piezoelectric layer so as to be separate from the upper electrode or at least part of the upper electrode doubles as a heater.

    Abstract: An electroacoustic transducer includes an ultrasonic element that includes a diaphragm and a support frame, a case body that accommodates the ultrasonic element, and fixing portions that join the support frame portion to a bottom plate portion of the case body. First and second main surfaces of the diaphragm face top and bottom plate portions of the case body, respectively, and a sound hole is provided in the case body. The fixing portions are partially provided along the circumferential direction of the support frame such that a space between the second main surface and the bottom plate portion communicates with a space around the ultrasonic element, and an acoustic path connecting the first main surface and the second main surface and the sound hole is provided in the case body. The fixing portions are defined by a die bonding agent including spherical spacers.

    Abstract: A piezoelectric transformer that includes a vibration portion assembly having an output electrode, an output-side intermediate electrode, an input-side intermediate electrode, and an input electrode. The vibration portion assembly includes n vibration portions. The input electrode includes one to n input electrode pieces. The output electrode includes one to n output electrode pieces. Wiring lines are arranged such that voltages of opposite phases can be respectively applied to a first input electrode piece group of the input electrode pieces corresponding to odd-numbered vibration portions, and a second input electrode piece group of the input electrode pieces corresponding to even-numbered vibration portions. The second output electrode piece and the first output-side intermediate electrode piece are superposed with each other in the thickness direction. The first output electrode piece is not superposed with either of the first and second output-side intermediate electrode pieces in the thickness direction.
