Abstract
An electro-mechanical transduction element includes a lower electrode formed above a substrate; an electro-mechanical transduction film which is formed on the lower electrode and includes a perovskite-type crystal containing lead zirconate titanate (PZT); and an upper electrode formed on the electro-mechanical transduction film, wherein, in a state where the electro-mechanical transduction film is not bound by the substrate, a peak position of X-ray diffraction caused by a plane (200) of the electro-mechanical transduction film is 2θ=44.45° or greater and 44.75° or smaller, and a peak of diffraction caused by the plane (200) or a plane (400) of the electro-mechanical transduction film has an asymmetry property.
