Summary: | A through-hole (3) is disposed in a supporting substrate (2). Plate-shaped beams (4 (4A, 4B)) each includes a piezoelectric element, extends from an edge of the through-hole (3) toward an opposite edge to close a part of the through-hole (3), supports a substance adsorption film to which a constitutive substance to be detected adheres, and has a vibration frequency that is varied due to adhesion of the constitutive substance to the substance adsorption film. Drive electrodes (16) apply a voltage to the piezoelectric element to vibrate and deform the beams (4). Detection electrodes (17) detect information about the vibration frequencies of the beams (4). |
