Abstract
Provided is a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid in a pressure chamber by a piezoelectric device, the piezoelectric device including a vibration plate, a piezoelectric layer containing lead, a first electrode provided between the vibration plate and the piezoelectric layer, and a second electrode provided on a side opposite to a side of the first electrode as viewed from the piezoelectric layer. The piezoelectric layer is preferentially oriented in a (100) plane, a lattice constant c defined by a crystal plane of the piezoelectric layer parallel to a film surface of the piezoelectric layer and a lattice constant a defined by a crystal plane perpendicular to the film surface satisfy 0.9945≤c/a≤1.012, and the thickness of the piezoelectric device is twice or more the thickness t (t<5 μm) of the piezoelectric layer.
