A laminated electronic actuator includes a pole-like laminate obtained by alternately
laminating a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of internal electrode
layers one upon the other, and two external electrode plates provided on the opposing
side surfaces of the pole-like laminate, the two external electrode plates being
electrically connected to every other internal electrode layer, and the one external
electrode plate and the other external electrode plate being electrically connected
to the different internal electrode layers. The side surfaces of the pole-like
laminate on where no external electrode plate is proved have ion concentrations
that are suppressed to be not higher than 10 g/cm2. Even when
the actuator is operated by applying a high voltage, the internal electrodes are
not short-circuited, effectively suppressing a change in the amount of displacement.
