Abstract
An ultrasonic device includes: a substrate provided with a first opening and a second opening; a support film that is provided on the substrate and blocks the first opening and the second opening; a transmitting piezoelectric film that is provided at a position of the support film which overlaps the first opening when viewed in a thickness direction of the substrate, and that is interposed between a pair of electrodes in the thickness direction of the substrate; and a receiving piezoelectric film that is provided at a position of the support film which overlaps the second opening when viewed in the thickness direction of the substrate, and that is interposed between a pair of electrodes in the thickness direction of the substrate. In the thickness direction of the substrate, a thickness dimension of the transmitting piezoelectric film is larger than a thickness dimension of the receiving piezoelectric film.
