Abstract
There is provided a liquid discharge head including: a pressure chamber plate including a plurality of pressure chambers and a vibration film, a piezoelectric actuator, and a protective plate covering the plurality of piezoelectric elements. The plurality of piezoelectric elements include a piezoelectric layer that is common to the plurality of pressure chambers. A circular recess and an island-like piezoelectric layer residual part enclosed by the circular recess are provided in a portion of the piezoelectric layer overlapping with partition walls of the pressure chamber plate. A residual overlapping part of the protective plate overlaps in a thickness direction with the island-like residual part, and is pressed on the island-like residual part of the piezoelectric actuator.
