Abstract

A method for manufacturing an electroactive actuator is provided. The method includes applying a layer of an electroactive polymer to an electrode surface, crystallizing the electroactive polymer by application of U.V. flash and applying a second electrode onto the crystallized electroactive polymer layer. According to the method a stack of multiple superimposed first electrode layers, electroactive polymer layers and second electrode layers may be obtained.
