Abstract

An electrostatic transducer including a membrane, a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode is disposed parallel to the membrane. The membrane is configured to respond mechanically to a varying first electric field in accordance with respective electric potentials applied between the first electrode and the membrane. The second electrode is disposed parallel to the membrane opposite from the first electrode. The membrane is configured to respond mechanically to a varying second electric field in accordance with respective electric potentials between the second electrode and the membrane. The first and second electrodes have through holes configured for acoustic transmission to and from the membrane. The housing includes: (i) a nozzle configured for acoustic transmission from the membrane through the holes of the first electrode to an ear canal and (ii) an aperture configured to provide acoustic transmission through the holes of the second electrode between the membrane and air external to the housing.
