    摘要: An ultrasonic sensor includes an opening portion, vibrating plate covering the opening portion, piezoelectric element overlapping with the opening portion, and a coupling electrode coupled to the piezoelectric element, extended from a position overlapping the opening portion to a position not overlapping the opening portion, and having a line width smaller than a width of the piezoelectric element. The piezoelectric has a first and second line portion, and a corner portion coupling the first and second line portions, when an intersection point connects a center of gravity of the piezoelectric and the corner portion with a virtual circle inscribed in the outline of the piezoelectric is a first intersection point of a tangent line. The first intersection point with the first and second line portions are a second and third intersection points, the coupling electrode coupled to a corner portion from the second intersection point to the third intersection point.

    摘要: An ultrasonic device includes a base member including a first surface and a second surface different from the first surface, a vibration plate provided at the first surface of the base member, and a piezoelectric element provided at the vibration plate. The base member includes a hole formed from the first surface to the second surface, and a wall portion surrounding the hole. The vibration plate includes, when viewed in a direction from the first surface toward the second surface, a supporting portion overlapping the wall portion, and a blocking portion that overlaps the hole and blocks the hole. The piezoelectric element is laminated at the blocking portion. The supporting portion has a first Young's modulus. The blocking portion includes a first blocking portion having the first Young's modulus and a second blocking portion having a second Young's modulus smaller than the first Young's modulus.

    摘要: An ultrasonic device includes a substrate, a transmitter provided at the substrate and configured to transmit an ultrasonic wave to an object, and a receiver provided at a position different from the transmitter at the substrate and configured to receive an ultrasonic wave reflected by the object. A resonance frequency of the transmitter is higher than a resonance frequency of the receiver. An anti-resonance frequency of the receiver is included in a predetermined frequency band including the resonance frequency of the transmitter.
