Abstract

A vibration device includes a cylindrical body, a light-transmissive body connected to a first end portion of the cylindrical body, and a piezoelectric element fixed to the cylindrical body. The cylindrical body includes a first flange portion extending radially outward from an outer peripheral surface, and a second flange portion. The first flange portion is located closer to the first end portion side relative to the second flange portion. The piezoelectric element is fixed to the second flange portion. By driving the piezoelectric element, the first flange portion vibrates to displace an outer peripheral edge of the first flange portion in an axial direction of the cylindrical body.
