A bimorph is a type of actuator or sensor that consists of two layers of materials with different expansion properties, typically bonded together. When an electrical voltage is applied across the bimorph structure, the difference in expansion or contraction between the two materials causes the bimorph to bend or deform. This principle is often used in applications like piezoelectric devices, where the bimorph can convert electrical energy into mechanical motion or vice versa.
