    摘要: An apparatus (200) is disclosed. The apparatus includes a rigid frame (206), an electroactive polymer film (204) defining an aperture (202) where the electroactive polymer film has a first and second side. A first electrode is located on the first side of the electroactive polymer film and a second electrode is located on the second side of the electroactive polymer film. The aperture is configured to deform upon the application of an electric voltage potential to the first and second electrodes. A method of making an electroactive device is also disclosed. The method includes positioning an electroactive polymer film within a rigid frame and forming an aperture within the electroactive polymer film.

    摘要: Electroactive polymer transducers are disclosed. They are biased in a manner that provides for increased force and/or stroke output, thereby offering improved work potential and power output capacity. The biasing may offer additional or alternate functional advantage in terms of matching transducer performance with a given application such as a normally-closed valve. The improved biasing (including increased output biasing) may utilize negative spring rate biasing and/or a combination of negative or zero-rate biasing with positive rate biasing to achieve the desired ends.
