  • Abstract
    A LiNbO3 bimorph actuator can be fabricated on a single crystal plate with inverse polarized layers. The actuator shows no hysteresis and no creep. However, as a thin rectangular plate inevitably exhibits mechanical high Q resonance, in this paper, we propose and examine a new servo-actuator with an integrated displacement velocity sensor and a feedback circuit to suppress resonance. Using FEM, the driving electrode was designed to drive only the first resonant mode and to suppress the secondary mode. Therefore, we applied the negative feedback circuit for the servo-actuator to suppress the fundamental mode. Optical measurement of the displacement of the actuator confirmed no ringing response to step impulse driving voltage
