Abstract: Provided is a novel piezoelectric element that has a generally long linear shape and has excellent flexibility and bend resistance. The piezoelectric element includes a core wire which is a resin wire having at least one layer of metal foil helically wound therearound, an organic piezoelectric layer that coats the core wire, and a conductor layer that coats the organic piezoelectric layer. The metal foil and the conductor layer each function as an electrode having the organic piezoelectric layer interposed therebetween. The at least one layer of metal foil is helically wound around the resin wire with gaps, and the ratio of the gap to the helical pitch of the metal foil is 0.4% to 50%.

Abstract: A touchscreen includes a substrate including a conductive layer on a part of its surface, and an antenna being situated in a region where the conductive layer is not provided.
