Abstract

According to an aspect, a force detection apparatus includes: a first electrode facing an input surface to which an object to be detected applies force, and configured to be supplied with a drive signal; a conductor facing the first electrode, and supplied with a reference potential; a second electrode and a third electrode arranged between the first electrode and the conductor; a first dielectric layer arranged between the first electrode, and the second electrode and the third electrode; and a second dielectric layer arranged between the second electrode and the third electrode, and the conductor. The second electrode is supplied with the reference potential. A signal that is the same as the drive signal is supplied in synchronization with the drive signal to the third electrode.
