Accordingly, the manufacturing process from the first process power to the third process in this embodiment is the same as that in FIGS. 2 to 11 in the first embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted.
- the lower electrode layer 2 and the upper electrode layer 4 on the surface of the substrate 1 having silicon force are electrically connected.
- These methods can be quickly and easily disconnected when a short-circuit portion is disconnected in a later step.
- a plurality of piezoelectric elements formed on the substrate 1 are connected by connecting the upper electrode layer 4 and the lower electrode layer 2 of the plurality of piezoelectric elements formed on the substrate 1 respectively. The child can be easily short-circuited at once, and the manufacturing process can be simplified.
- a third resist film 7 is formed so as to cover the surface portion while leaving a part of the lower electrode layer 2.
- the substrate 1 made of silicon is etched by dry etching as shown in FIG. This etching method can be performed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.
- the third resist film 7 is removed using a resist stripping solution, UV light or ozone.
- a resist stripping solution such as UV light or ozone.
- the piezoelectric element that has been made into an element is fixed to an airtight enclosure (not shown) such as ceramic with an adhesive or the like, and the lower electrode layer 2 and the upper electrode layer 4 are wired by wire bonding or the like.
- the short-circuit portion between the upper electrode layer 4 and the lower electrode layer 2 is subjected to disconnection processing, whereby each piezoelectric element can be completed.
- the upper electrode layer is charged. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an electric field from being generated in the piezoelectric thin film layer, so that it is possible to prevent deterioration of a predetermined polarization state and to prevent damage to processing, and a piezoelectric element used for a sensor actuator or the like. It is useful as a method for producing high-performance piezoelectric elements using thin films.
