MEMS SPEAKER AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR SAME
The present invention provides a MEMS speaker including a substrate sidewall enclosing a cavity. The substrate sidewall includes a first surface and a second surface, a sounding assembly that is arranged on the first surface of the substrate sidewall and also seals the cavity at the opening of the first surface, and a bracket disposed in the cavity. The sounding assembly includes a first sounding assembly and the second sounding assembly. Each sounding assembly includes a driving part and a flexible diaphragm. The flexible diaphragm closes the gap formed between the free ends of adjacent driving parts and between the free ends of the driving parts and the substrate sidewall. The present invention also provides a manufacturing method of MEMS speaker. The MEMS speakers provided by the present invention have high-quality acoustic performance.
Ultrasonic transducer
Ultrasonic transducers that are capable of generating increased levels of ultrasound, as well as receiving ultrasonic waves with increased sensitivity. The ultrasonic transducers include a back cover, a protective front cover, a backplate, and a vibrator film layer disposed between the backplate and the protective front cover. The backplate includes a plurality of grooves formed on a surface thereof facing the vibrator film layer. Each groove includes upper edges having cross-sectional contours that gradually tend toward the deepest part of the groove to allow a larger area of the backplate to be closer to the vibrator film layer, thereby increasing the resulting electric field, and, consequently, increasing the output power and sensitivity of the ultrasonic transducer.
