Abstract

A steel sheet has a predetermined chemical composition, when a sheet thickness is denoted by t, a metallographic structure at a t/4-position, which is a position t/4 away from a surface, in a cross section in a sheet thickness direction includes, by volume percentage, martensite: 70% or greater and residual austenite: 10% or greater, the maximum grain diameter of the residual austenite is less than 5.0 μm when a Mn concentration is measured at a plurality of measurement points at intervals of 1 μm in a square region with a side length of t/4 centered at the t/4-position in the cross section in the sheet thickness direction, a proportion of measurement points at which the Mn concentration is 1.1 times or greater than the average of the Mn concentrations at all of the plurality of measurement points is less than 10.0%, and the tensile strength is 1,470 MPa or greater.
