Abstract
A displacement detection sensor has a plate member and piezoelectric sensors with a piezoelectric film of PLLA. The piezoelectric sensors are mounted on the face of the plate member on the opposite side of the operation surface thereof. Tensile stresses are generated in the entire face of the plate member at pressing the operation surface. The piezoelectric sensor is mounted so that the direction of macro tensile stress in the plate member in the region in which the piezoelectric sensor is mounted and molecular orientation direction of the piezoelectric film intersect each other at an angle of 45°. The piezoelectric sensor is mounted so that the direction of macro tensile stress in the plate member in the region in which the piezoelectric sensor is mounted and molecular orientation direction of the piezoelectric film intersect each other at an angle of approximately 45°.
