Abstract
In a piezoelectric element, shift of a resonance point to a low-pitched sound side is achieved. A resonance point of a piezoelectric element moves to a low-pitched sound side when an active region is configured to be surrounded by an inactive region as in the configuration of the piezoelectric element. According to the piezoelectric element whose resonance point is moved to a low-pitched sound side, the piezoelectric element can realize a sound pressure that is sufficiently high for practical use when it is applied to an acoustic device.
