英国新型平板扬声器轻薄如纸

英国科学家研究出了一种只有0.25毫米厚的扬声器


这种扬声器可以安装在墙壁和汽车装饰里而不用占用空间
据《每日科学》报道,英国华威大学的工程师研究出了一种新型扬声器,厚度不超过0.25毫米。形状扁平,能随意弯曲,可以像画一样悬挂在墙体上。它发音的方式非常特殊,可使客运站等嘈杂地带的公告显得更加响亮、清脆,更容易让过往行人听到。

这种扬声器的体重很轻,造价便宜,体积很小,而且还可以随意变形。可以把它安装在天花板里、汽车内部或者在它表面画上图案,像画一样悬挂在墙上。英国华威大学的附属公司——沃里克音频科技公司(Warwick Audio Technologies)发明的这种“平板柔韧扬声器(Flat, Flexible Loudspeaker)”是需要传播平行音波(planar directional sound waves)的公共场所的理想选择。

沃里克音频科技公司CEO史蒂夫·库赫曼认为,这种新型扬声器会彻底取代现在的家用和车用扬声器,以及客运枢纽和商业区使用的播音系统。他说:“我们认为这是一项真正的创新工艺。它的体积和柔韧性意味着它可以在所有空间非常珍贵的区域使用。很多音频视觉公司正在研究把它当作销售点的智能语音讯息广告。因为它非常轻,非常薄,汽车商也对它特别感兴趣,因为这两个优势意味着可以把它安装在汽车顶蓬里,这比把扬声器安在汽车内部的下面更加合理。”

所有扬声器在工作时,都是把电子信号转变成声音。以前人们习惯利用电子信号改变磁场,在一个机械装置里产生振动,产生声音。沃里克音频科技公司的平板柔韧扬声器技术是一种经过精心设计,由轻薄、导电和绝缘的材料构成的一种集合体,这些材料导致一种柔韧塑料技术不断发展。这种柔韧性格好的塑料在受到电子信号刺激时,会发生振动,产生声音。这种新型扬声器塑料就相当于一个完美的活塞共鸣器。整个振动膜协调地向四周扩展,形成一个区域发射源。由振动的表面发出的波阵面是连续产生方向感极强以及非常准确的声音图像的水平波。专家认为,这种新型扬声器进一步完美后将大有市场。

是否愚人节新闻?平板扬声器一般是压电的或磁致伸缩的,这种复合塑料的物理原理不清楚?

ScienceDaily (Apr. 1, 2009) — A groundbreaking new loudspeaker -- less than 0.25mm thick -- has been developed by University of Warwick engineers. It's flat, flexible, could be hung on a wall like a picture, and its particular method of sound generation could make public announcements in places like passenger terminals clearer, crisper, and easier to hear.

愚人节一般不会把科学上的东西来搞吧


N年以前的愚人节就有过“牛西红柿”的报道啊

鉴定属实:从物理原理上讲是一种静电扬声器.结构图贴不上

Electrostatic loudspeaker
The laminate comprises three layers, as shown in the diagram below. The sheet materials are bonded in the production process to maintain the active thickness over an area between the A5 and A3 paper sizes. Electrical contacts to the outer layers of the laminate allow a boosted audio signal to drive the laminate, reproducing sound.



All speakers operate on the principle an electrical signal is converted into sound using a mechanical device. A conventional cone speaker takes the electrical signal, which in turn generates a varying magnetic field, in turn vibrating a mechanical cone, so producing the sound. All these energy conversions lead to a very inefficient speaker.

FFL technology produces sound using a far more efficient process. We directly apply the electrical signal to the laminate, which vibrates in time with the electrical signal. The laminate is composed of two conducting surfaces, called Membranes, separated by an insulating layer. Hence an electric field (rather than a magnetic field) forms over the laminate. The design and construction of the laminate is unique and protected by the Intellectual Property of Warwick Audio.

FFL are driven over the entire surface area, providing a near linear response at sound pressure levels suitable for many applications. By closely controlling the separation of the membranes, we achieve reduced active drive voltages compared to ESL.

It is important to note that by significantly improving the electrical to audio efficiency, we have broken the conventional link between the power rating and the loudness of a speaker. The loudness of cone speakers is often linked to the electrical power consumption. This is not a relevant relationship for the FFL.
