ACTUATOR ELEMENT AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

An actuator elemnt capable of constantly operating in air or in vacuum and being driven at low voltage. The actuator elememt comprises an ionic conduction layer (1) consisting of a gel composition of ionic liquid and polymer, and at least two electrode layers (2) each consisting of a gel composition of carbon-nanotube, ionic liquid and polymer and formed on the surface of the ionic conduction layer (1) in a mutually insulated state, curving and deformation being caused by giving a potential difference to the electrode layers; or the actuator elememt comprises an ionic conduction layer (1), at least two electrode layers (2) formed on the surface of the ionic conduction layer (1) in a mutually insulated state, and conduction layers (3) formed on the surfaces of the electrode layers (2), curving and deformation being caused by giving a potential difference to the conduction layers.
