Abstract
A film transducer has a holding part and an electroactive multilayer composite structure including at least two deformable carriers which are each coated on at least one side with a planar electrode. The multilayer composite structure has an elongated basic shape and being clamped on its shorter sides in a fixing section in the holding part while its longer sides are free, the electrodes of the multilayer composite structure being alternately connected at the ends clamped in the holding part to a contact element which is arranged in the fixing section.
