A multilayer component is disclosed. In an embodiment, a multilayer component includes a main body with first and second inner electrodes, wherein the first and second electrodes are alternately arranged in an interior of the main body and electrically insulated from one another and an outer contact configured to provide external contact, wherein the outer contact comprises at least two first strip-shaped conductor tracks arranged on a first surface of the main body, wherein each first conductor track is electrically connected to one of the first inner electrodes, wherein the outer contact comprises at least two second strip-shaped conductor tracks arranged on a second surface of the main body, wherein each second conductor track is electrically connected to one of the second inner electrodes, and wherein embossings in adjacent first conductor tracks or second conductor tracks are arranged offset with respect to one another.

A method for tuning a resonant frequency of a piezoelectric component is disclosed. The piezoelectric component includes a transducer extending in three spatial directions. The resonant frequency depends on an extension in at least one of the spatial directions and/or on a material-dependent elasticity modulus. The transducer includes a layered structure with at least two first electrodes and at least one second electrode, which is disposed between the two first electrodes. In the method, a DC voltage is applied to at least one of the at least two first electrodes and the at least one second electrode, so that a change of the resonant frequency results due to a change to the extension in the one spatial direction and the elasticity modulus. A control voltage with an excitation frequency is applied, the excitation frequency substantially corresponding to the modified resonant frequency. This generates a vibration of the piezoelectric component.
