  • Patent number: 11895464
    Abstract: A MEMS speaker includes a substrate, a vibration sounding portion and a baffle plate with a through hole. The baffle plate, the substrate and the vibration sounding portion form a sounding inner cavity, and a volume of the sounding inner cavity can adjust a resonant frequency of the sounding inner cavity, so that the resonance frequency of the sounding inner cavity resonate with a preset frequency of the MEMS speaker. A speaker assembly structure further provided includes a speaker, a fixing portion, and a baffle plate, the speaker and the baffle plate together enclose and form a sounding inner cavity, the fixing portion and the speaker are fixedly connected together and form a sealing structure. A sound pressure level of the MEMS speaker and the speaker assembly structure is high and harmonic distortion of the MEMS speaker and the speaker assembly structure is small.

  • Patent number: 11699988
    Abstract: A resonator includes a silicon substrate, a bottom electrode stacked on a portion of the silicon substrate, a piezoelectric layer covering the bottom electrode and another portion of the silicon substrate, a top electrode stacked on the piezoelectric layer, and a Bragg reflecting ring. The Bragg reflecting ring is formed on a side of the piezoelectric layer connected to the top electrode and surrounds the top electrode. The Bragg reflecting ring includes a Bragg high-resistivity layer and a Bragg low-resistivity layer alternately arranged along the radial direction of the Bragg reflecting ring. An acoustic impedance of the Bragg high-resistivity layer is greater than an acoustic impedance of the Bragg low-resistivity layer. The Bragg reflecting ring forms reflection surfaces to reflect the laterally propagating clutter waves, thereby suppressing the parasitic mode in the working frequency band, improving the frequency response curve of the resonator and the overall performance of the resonator.
