Abstract:
A method of producing a piezoelectric actuator includes the steps of: forming a first electrode layer on a substrate by jetting an aerosol containing particles of a conductive material and ceramic particles onto the substrate to make the particles adhere to the substrate; forming a piezoelectric layer on the first electrode layer by jetting an aerosol containing particles of a piezoelectric material onto the first electrode layer to make the particles adhere to the electrode; performing an annealing treatment for the piezoelectric layer; and forming, on the piezoelectric layer, a second electrode layer paring with the first electrode layer. Accordingly, the adherence between the substrate and the first electrode layer and between the first electrode layer and the piezoelectric layer are improved, thereby hardly causing exfoliation of the layers due to differences in coefficients of thermal expansion between the layers.
