Abstract
An optical scanning device is provided. The optical scanning device includes a mirror having an optical reflection surface, a movable frame supporting the mirror, a pair of drive beams supporting the movable frame from both sides, a drive source, disposed on the drive beams, that causes the movable frame to be swung around a predetermined axis, a fixed frame supporting the drive beams. Each of the drive source includes a lower electrode formed on the drive beams, a piezoelectric thin film formed on the lower electrode, an upper electrode formed on the piezoelectric thin film, and a stress counter film, formed on the upper electrode or formed between the piezoelectric thin film and the upper electrode, that generates a compressive stress on the drive beams.
