Piezoelectric transformer-based high conversion ratio interface for driving dielectric actuator in microrobotic applications

Dielectric actuators are utilized to convert electrical power into mechanical strain with considerable potential in microrobotic applications. However, critical challenges that need to be addressed include high-voltage interface with high conversion ratio, light weight, small size, and high power de...
