| 20090154734 | METHOD FOR FABRICATING MICRO SPEAKER AND MICRO SPEAKER FABRICATED BY THE SAME - A method for fabricating a micro speaker is provided, including forming a package wafer and a device wafer by batch processing, bonding the package wafer and the device wafer to each other, and forming a diaphragm by isotropic-etching a back surface of the device wafer using a xenon difluoride (XeF | 06-18-2009 |
| 20100072860 | PIEZOELECTRIC MICROSPEAKER AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME - Provided is a method of fabricating a piezoelectric microspeaker. According to the method, drive units having a piezoelectric layer and an electrode are symmetrically formed so as to be disposed over and under a diaphragm, respectively. When a thin conductive layer is used as the diaphragm, the diaphragm can be used as a common electrode. On the other hand, when a thin non-conductive layer is used as the diaphragm, a common electrode is necessary in each of the drive units. | 03-25-2010 |

In the piezoelectric microspeaker, a diaphragm includes a first region and a second region. The first region may be formed of a material capable of maximizing an exciting force, and the second region may be formed of a material having less initial stress and a lower Young's modulus than the first region. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100156238 | PIEZOELECTRIC ACOUSTIC TRANSDUCER AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME - Provided are a piezoelectric acoustic transducer and a method of fabricating the same. In the piezoelectric acoustic transducer, a piezoelectric portion is formed in a portion of a diaphragm, and a deformation layer is formed in another portion of the diaphragm. Deformation of the piezoelectric portion is transferred to the deformation layer, or deformation of the deformation layer is transferred to the piezoelectric layer so that the deformation layer vibrates with the piezoelectric layer. | 06-24-2010 |
