Piezoelectric element, method of manufacturing the same, liquid-jet head, method of manufacturing the same, and liquid-jet apparatus
Disclosed are a piezoelectric element, which has a high withstand voltage and a longer durability life, a manufacturing method of the piezoelectric element, a liquid-jet head, a manufacturing method of the liquid-jet head, and a liquid-jet apparatus. The manufacturing method of a piezoelectric element includes the steps of: forming a piezoelectric layer by forming, on the lower electrode, a piezoelectric precursor film in which Pb, Zr and Ti are contained and the composition ratio of Pb, Zr and Ti becomes Pb/(Zr+Ti)=1.0 to 1.3 after the piezoelectric precursor film has been baked, and to which at least any one dopant selected from the group consisting of manganese, nickel and strontium is doped, and by then baking the piezoelectric precursor film for half an hour to three hours at 650 to 750° C.; and forming an upper electrode on the piezoelectric layer.
