The invention discloses a piezoelectric stick-slip 
linear motor equipped with an inclined-ladder-shaped amplitude amplifying mechanism, and an excitation method for the piezoelectric stick-slip 
linear motor, and solves the problem that the output mechanical performance of the current piezoelectric stick-slip 
linear motor is limited caused by difficulty in comprehensive regulation and control on the 
friction force, and the like. The piezoelectric stick-slip linear motor comprises a base, a pre-loading 
assembly, an inclined-ladder-shaped 
stator and a mover, wherein the inclined-ladder-shaped amplitude amplifying switching mechanism of the 
stator has a micro-displacement amplifying function, and 
lateral displacement can be generated due to the axial uneven rigidity distribution; meanwhile, the friction driving force is increased while the friction resistance is decreased; the friction regulation and control wave is coupled and overlapped to the sawtooth driving wave in the rapid deformation driving stage of the inclined-ladder-shaped 
stator so as to reduce the friction resistance between the stator and the mover in the rapid deformation driving stage; and therefore, the comprehensive regulation and control on the 
friction force is realized, and the mechanical output characteristic of the piezoelectric stick-slip linear motor is improved. The piezoelectric stick-slip linear motor has the characteristics of compact structure, convenience in assembling, high positioning precision, long journey and the like, and can be widely applied to 
semiconductor processing, and other micro-nano precision driving and positioning technical fields.
