Recent　interests　and　demands　for　developing　video-rate　atomic　force　microscopes,　high-throughput　probe-based　nanofabrication　and　high-frequency　vibration　generator　for　assisted-machining　are　increasingly　posing　new　challenges　for　designing　high-bandwidth　and　large-range　piezo-actuated　compliant　mechanisms.　The　previous　studies　mainly　focused　on　making　the　trade-off　between　natural　frequency　and　motion　range　by　designing　a　proper　topology.　Differing　from　the　previous　works,　this　paper　attempts　to　break　the　deadlock　by　employing　both　piezo-stacks　and　piezoelectric　patches　to　actuate　compliant　mechanisms.　In　this　method,　piezo-stacks　provide　an　actuating　force　similar　to　the　traditional　way,　while　piezoelectric　patches　are　bonded　on　the　surface　of　the　flexure　arms　in　compliant　mechanisms.　These　＇active＇　laminaes　are　used　to　further　actuate　the　hosting　flexural　beam　by　inducing　strains　on　the　interface　and　then　give　additional　bending　moments　to　the　flexural　arms,　which　enlarge　the　output　displacement　of　the　compliant　mechanism　while　without　the　sacrifice　of　natural　frequency.　An　analytical　formulation　is　established　to　illustrate　the　new　driving　principle　and　the　compound　static　behaviour　of　a　specific　hybrid　piezo-actuated　multistage　compliant　mechanism.　Initial　prototype　is　also　manufactured　and　experimentally　testing　is　conducted　to　verify　the　feasibility　of　the　method.
