Production and characterization of rainbow piezoelectric actuators. Advantages from other traditional devices

A new actuator called RAINBOW is presently intensively studied because of the extremely large displacement that it is able to generate. The aim of the present work is to fully characterize the performances of this kind of actuator in terms of voltage, frequency and temperature dependence of both max...
