Abstract
A fluid ejection device includes a flexible membrane, an adhesive layer, a piezoelectric material layer, and first and second electrically conductive layers. The adhesive layer and the piezoelectric material layer include edge regions and central regions. A surface of the edge region of the piezoelectric material layer is coplanar with a surface of the edge region of the adhesive layer. The first electrically conductive layer is between the piezoelectric material layer and the adhesive layer such that a surface of the first electrically conductive layer is coplanar with the surface of the edge region of the piezoelectric material layer and the surface of the edge region of the adhesive layer. The second electrically conductive layer is over the surface of the edge region of the piezoelectric material layer, the surface of the edge region of the adhesive layer, the surface of the first electrically conductive layer, and the flexible membrane.
