1. A vibration unit, comprising:
- a frame;
a vibration element configured to vibrate and with a substrate having a first etched surface formed on a top surface of the substrate and a second etched surface formed on a bottom surface of the substrate, the first etched surface and the second etched surface communicate with each other at a meeting point located at a position other than a center position in a thickness direction of the substrate of the vibration element; and
a beam connecting the vibration element to the frame.

Abstract
A vibration unit including a frame, a vibration element including a substrate configured to vibrate, and a beam configured to connect the vibration element to the frame. The vibration unit is produced by applying an etching process to at least two surfaces of a substrate. A meeting position of the two surfaces of the substrate is located where a first etching process, which takes place on a first surface of the substrate and a second etching process, which takes place on a second surface of the substrate meet, and is located at a position other than a center position in a width direction of the beam.
