The present disclosure relates to a bone conduction speaker and its compound vibration device. The compound vibration device comprises a vibration conductive plate and a vibration board, the vibration conductive plate is set to be the first torus, where at least two first rods inside it converge to its center; the vibration board is set as the second torus, where at least two second rods inside it converge to its center. The vibration conductive plate is fixed with the vibration board; the first torus is fixed on a magnetic system, and the second torus comprises a fixed voice coil, which is driven by the magnetic system. The bone conduction speaker in the present disclosure and its compound vibration device adopt the fixed vibration conductive plate and vibration board, making the technique simpler with a lower cost; because the two adjustable parts in the compound vibration device can adjust both low frequency and high frequency area, the frequency response obtained is flatter and the sound is broader.

A microelectromechanical systems device includes a vibrator and a reinforcing film. The vibrator includes a piezoelectric element configured to convert pressure to an electrical signal. The reinforcing film is configured to reinforce strength of the vibrator. The vibrator further has a groove at which a portion of the reinforcing film is disposed.

A method of making an acoustic sensor (e.g., a piezoelectric sensor for a piezoelectric microelectromechanical systems microphone) includes forming or depositing one or more piezoelectric layers to define a beam extending between a proximal portion and a distal tip (e.g., unsupported free end), the beam having a width in plan view that is greater at a location distal of the proximal portion than at the proximal portion. The method also comprises attaching the beam to a substrate in cantilever form so that the proximal portion of the beam is anchored to the substrate and the distal tip is a free unsupported end of the beam. One or more electrodes are disposed on or in the proximal portion of the beam.

A MEMS microphone includes a substrate having an opening, a first diaphragm, a first backplate, a second diaphragm, and a backplate. The first diaphragm faces the opening in the substrate. The first backplate includes multiple accommodating-openings and it is spaced apart from the first diaphragm. The second diaphragm joints the first diaphragm together at multiple locations by pillars passing through the accommodating-openings in the first backplate. The first backplate is located between the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm. The second backplate includes at least one vent hole and it is spaced apart from the second diaphragm. The second diaphragm is located between the first backplate and the second backplate.
