  • Patent number: 7633214
    Abstract: A multi-layer piezoelectric element having excellent durability in which the amount of displacement does not change even after subjecting to continuous operation over a long period of time under a high voltage and a high pressure is provided. The multi-layer piezoelectric element comprises a stack formed by stacking piezoelectric layers and internal electrodes alternately one on another and external electrodes the proportion of silver contained in electrically conductive material of the internal electrode near the junction with the external electrode is higher than the proportion of silver contained in electrically conductive material of the internal electrode located inside of the stack.
