Abstract
A piezoelectric drive element disposed on a placement surface of a metal substrate includes a piezoelectric drive body having a first main surface opposite the placement surface, a second main surface on a placement surface side, and a side surface, and a first electrode disposed on the first main surface. The piezoelectric drive element is disposed on the placement surface such that a part of the placement surface is located outside the side surface. A second bonding member having conductivity includes a first portion disposed between the placement surface and the piezoelectric drive element, and a second portion being continuous from the first portion and disposed in a corner formed by the part of the placement surface and the side surface. The second portion does not reach the first electrode.
