Abstract: To improve the Q value of a piezoelectric thin-film element in a state in which unnecessary vibration is suppressed, an acoustic reflection film (104) is affixed to a first electrode (102), a piezoelectric single-crystal substrate (101) is thinned by polishing from the other surface (101b) of the piezoelectric single-crystal substrate (101), such that the first electrode (102) and piezoelectric thin film (105) are piled on the piezoelectric single-crystal substrate (101). In this polishing, a pressure (polishing pressure) to the surface (101b) during polishing in an electrode formation region where the first electrode (102) is formed differs from that in a non-electrode formation region around the electrode formation region. Consequently, the electrode formation region of the piezoelectric thin film (105), where the first electrode (102) is formed, is made thinner than the non-electrode formation region around the electrode formation region.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a disk medium rotates in a first rotation state when access is given, and rotates in a second rotation state lower in rotation number than the first rotation state when access is not given. A controller receives, from a host device, a read command for reading first data stored in a first buffer, when the disk medium is in the second rotation state. The controller transmits the first data from the first buffer to the host device, without causing a shift into the first rotation state, and then shifts the disk medium into the first rotation state after completion of execution of the read command.
