ABSTRACT:
A stacked type electromechanical energy conversion element which is compact in size and capable of providing higher output power and enhanced operating efficiency. A plurality of electrode layers are formed, respectively, on one surfaces of a plurality of piezoelectric layers, and the material layers and said electrode layers are stacked one upon another. Electrodes are formed at least in the plurality of material layers for providing electrical connections between corresponding ones of the plurality of electrode layers. The plurality of electrode layers have a non-uniform configuration depending on a predetermined strain distribution that is to occur in the stacked type electromechanical energy conversion element.
