Abstract
A tuning fork vibration device includes: a SOI substrate having a substrate, an oxide layer formed above the substrate and a semiconductor layer formed above the oxide layer; a tuning fork type vibration section that is formed by processing the semiconductor layer and the oxide layer and composed of the semiconductor layer; and a driving section for generating flexural vibration of the vibration section, wherein the vibration section includes a support section and two beam sections formed in a cantilever shape with the support section as a base of the beam sections, and the driving section includes a pair of drivers formed on each of the two beam sections, each of the drivers including a first electrode layer, a piezoelectric layer formed above the first electrode layer and a second electrode layer formed above the piezoelectric layer.
