  • Method for producing piezoelectric film actuator, and composite structure having piezoelectric layer
    Publication number: 20060049723
    Abstract: A method for producing a piezoelectric film actuator is provided. This method includes the steps of preparing an intermediate transfer member having a porous layer formed thereon, with a vibrating plate and a piezoelectric layer being provided on the porous layer; bonding the vibrating plate to a nozzle substrate to form a composite structure; and separating the intermediate transfer member from the composite structure at the porous layer to transfer the vibrating plate and the piezoelectric layer to the nozzle substrate.
