Abstract
A vibration driving device that is capable of exciting a vibration of desired amplitude with a low voltage. A vibration body has a plate-like elastic body and an electro-mechanical energy conversion element that is joined to the elastic body. A control unit excites a vibration in a first vibration mode and a vibration in a second vibration mode in the vibration body by applying alternation voltages to the electro-mechanical energy conversion element. Orders or numbers of nodes of the vibrations in the first and second modes in a first direction that intersects perpendicularly with a thickness direction of the elastic body are mutually different by one. And orders or numbers of nodes of the vibrations in the first and second modes in a second direction that intersects perpendicularly with the thickness direction of the elastic body and the first direction are mutually different by one.
