Abstract

See full text

An actuator has a flexible electrode that has flexibility and a base electrode of which an opposing surface facing the flexible electrode is covered with an insulation layer, and is configured such that, when a voltage is applied between flexible electrode and the base electrode, the flexible electrode deforms so as to approach the opposing surface. The actuator includes a restraining member that restrains the flexible electrode on the base electrode. The flexible electrode has a deforming portion that deforms when a voltage is applied between the electrodes. The deforming portion deforms in a direction of approaching the opposing surface, with the restraining member serving as a support point.
