Abstract

A light deflector includes a mirror part, a pair of torsion bars, inside piezoelectric actuators, and a movable frame part. The crystal orientation in the axial direction of the torsion bars is set to <100>. In the joint edge portions of the torsion bars and the inside piezoelectric actuators, radius parts are oriented to <110> and each formed by a curved surface recessed inward. The amount of waviness about a roughness curve derived from the curved surface is set within 600 nm.
