View Patent ↗Provided is an NBT-BT lead-free piezoelectric film having a high crystalline orientation and a high piezoelectric constant. The present invention is a piezoelectric film comprising a Na x M 1-x layer and a (Bi, Na)TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer. The (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer is formed on the Na x M 1-x layer, where M represents Pt, Ir, or PtIr and x represents a value of not less than 0.002 and not more than 0.02. Both of the Na x M 1-x layer and the (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer have a (001) orientation only, a (110) orientation only, or a (111) orientation only.
1. A piezoelectric film comprising:
a Na x M 1-x layer; and
a (Bi, Na)TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer; wherein
the (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer is formed on the Na x M 1-x layer,
M represents Pt, Ir, or PtIr,
x represents a value of not less than 0.002 and not more than 0.02; and
both of the Na x M 1-x layer and the (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer have a (001) orientation only, a (110) orientation only, or a (111) orientation only.
2. The piezoelectric film according to claim 1 , wherein
the (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer is in contact with the Na x M 1-x layer.
3. The piezoelectric film according to claim 1 , wherein
the (Bi, Na) TiO 3 —BaTiO 3 layer further contains Mn.
