Abstract

L'invention porte sur un élément piézo-électrique stratifié qui présente une durabilité accrue et qui réduit et disperse sur un corps stratifié une contrainte générée au niveau de sections de bordure entre une région active et des régions inactives. L'élément piézo-électrique stratifié (1) comprend un corps stratifié (5), dans lequel une pluralité de couches piézo-électriques (2) et de couches d'électrode interne (3a, 3b) sont alternativement stratifiées, et des électrodes externes (4a, 4b) sont attachées à une paire de faces opposées du corps stratifié (5), chacune des électrodes étant connectées soit à un premier ensemble (3a) soit à un second ensemble (3b) des couches d'électrode interne (3a, 3b). La zone comprise entre une première électrode externe (4a), qui est connectée au premier ensemble de couches d'électrode interne (3a), et le second ensemble de couches d'électrode interne (3b) est isolée et forme une région inactive (A2). Dans la région inactive (A2), la largeur (w) de l'espace compris entre la première électrode externe (4a) et le second ensemble de couches d'électrode interne (3b) est plus petite aux extrémités du corps stratifié (5) dans la direction de stratification qu'au centre.
