摘要 |
<p>The invention provides a small, lightweight piezoelectric actuator; a drive method for providing a large displacement at low voltage using such a piezoelectric actuator; and a small, lightweight information storage for high-density recording, which includes such a piezoelectric actuator to drive a head with a small moment of inertia. A piezoelectric actuator (110) comprises four drive bars (111_1, 111_2, 111_3, 111_4), to one diagonal pair of which a voltage is applied at an instant whereas a voltage is applied to the other diagonal pair at another instant, so two central parts (112_1, 112_2) rotate relative to two end parts (113_1, 113_2).</p> |
