ABSTRACT:
An integrated liquid crystal acoustic transducer includes a substrate chip having a through hole; a movable plate electrode; means for resiliently mounting the movable plate electrode across the hole in the substrate chip; a perforated electrode spaced from the movable plate electrode and mounted across the hole in the substrate chip; and a liquid crystal medium, disposed between the electrodes, whose polarization vector orientation changes in response to electrical and acoustic input to reciprocally convert between electric and acoustic energy.
