Abstract
A piezoelectric/electrostrictive device has a base including a pair of right and left movable parts and a fixing part on one end thereof, and a piezoelectric/electrostrictive element on the side surfaces of movable parts of base . The adhesive force of bonding a component H sandwiched and held on the other end of movable parts is enhanced. Base constituting the piezoelectric/electrostrictive device has a pair of long mounting parts for mounting component H on the other end of movable parts . Mounting parts extend for a predetermined length while holding slit-shaped gaps of a predetermined width along the inside surfaces of movable parts by being turned around at the other end of movable parts . This increases the bonding area of mounting parts to component H, thereby greatly improving the adhesive force of bonding the component.
