Abstract

A piezoelectric device includes an adhesive layer composed of a material which enhances adhesion between a base plane of a piezoelectric device and a lower electrode, a diffusion preventing layer formed with a material which prevents the phenomenon of diffusion of a component of the adhesive layer into the lower electrode, wherein the lower electrode is formed over the diffusion preventing layer, a piezoelectric film formed over the lower electrode and exhibits an electromechanical transducing action, and an upper electrode formed over the lower electrode. The diffusion preventing layer prevents diffusion of titanium which is a principal component of the adhesive layer.
