A piezoelectric single crystal traveling wave rotary motor operated in a stepping motion for cryogenic actuations was developed and characterized. This single crystal stepping motor had a torque of , an excess of 1800 steps per revolution about its axis, and a power consumption of by using a step motion with 25% duty cycle. We then show that this single crystal motor can successfully operate at (liquid nitrogen) under a load.
