Abstract
A multilayer actuator includes multiple electrode layers of alternating polarity situated one on top of the other in the direction of a longitudinal axis, and dielectric layers situated between the electrode layers. The electrode layers of identical polarity each extend as far as, and are electrically connected to one another at least indirectly in, an edge area on one side in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and end before the edge area on the opposite side.
