A Nanomechanical Transducer for Remote Signal Transmission onto the Tympanic Membrane–Playing Music on a Different Drum (Adv. Mater. Technol. 22/2024)
Source abstract
Abstract
Nanomechanical Transducers In article number 2400127, Robert H. Blick and co-workers show that integrating piezoelectric ceramics with silicon nanomembranes creates a unique sensor/actuator for the tympanic membrane, enabling kHz-range sound transmission via radio frequency. Demonstrated using a nanomembrane on a piezoelectric chip, it drives an audible mechanical response. An antenna enables remote actuation, proving a feasible invisible hearing aid.
