Abstract
An electrostatic transducer comprises an electrically conductive first layer (1), a flexible insulating second layer (25) disposed over the first layer, and a flexible electrically conductive third layer (26) disposed over the second layer. Between the first and the second layers are provided spacers (24) and between the second and the third layers are provided spacers (27). The spacers may be provided by strips of adhesive or by bonding the layers together by welding, for example. The first layer (1) is provided with an array of through apertures (5) each having an inlet (6) facing the second layer (2) and an outlet (7). In response to signals applied to the first and third layers, the second and third layers have portions which are displaced towards the outlets of the apertures by electrostatic forces. The apertures (5) may have conducting walls and the walls may converge.
