Abstract
A composite multilayer ceramic structure which comprises in a single device a plurality of layers of an electrostrictive dielectric material separated by a plurality of electrode layers in which a first portion is adapted to operate as an electrostrictive actuator and a second portion, which is adjacent to the first portion and which is not inherently piezoelectric, is adapted to operate in the same way as a piezoelectric sensor.
