A '''unimorph''' or '''monomorph''' is a cantilever that consists of one active layer and one inactive layer.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://robotics.eecs.berkeley.edu/~ronf/PAPERS/icra01b.pdf | title=Robotics Lab}}</ref> In the case where active layer is piezoelectric, deformation in that layer may be induced by the application of an electric field. This deformation induces a bending displacement in the cantilever. The inactive layer may be fabricated from a non-piezoelectric material.
