Sound producing cell and manufacturing method thereof
A sound producing cell includes a membrane and an actuating layer. The membrane includes a first membrane subpart and a second membrane subpart, wherein the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart are opposite to each other. The actuating layer is disposed on the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart. The first membrane subpart includes a first anchored edge which is fully or partially anchored, and edges of the first membrane subpart other than the first anchored edge are non-anchored. The second membrane subpart includes a second anchored edge which is fully or partially anchored, and edges of the second membrane subpart other than the second anchored edge are non-anchored.
1. A sound producing cell, comprising:
a membrane, comprising a first membrane subpart and a second membrane subpart, wherein the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart are opposite to each other in a top view viewing along a top-view direction, such that the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart are opposite to each other in a first direction perpendicular to the top-view direction;
an actuating layer, disposed on the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart in the top-view direction; and
an anchor structure, wherein the membrane is anchored by the anchor structure;
wherein the first membrane subpart comprises a first anchored edge which is fully or partially connected to the anchor structure for being fully or partially anchored by the anchor structure, and edges of the first membrane subpart other than the first anchored edge are non-anchored;
wherein the second membrane subpart comprises a second anchored edge which is fully or partially connected to the anchor structure for being fully or partially anchored by the anchor structure, and edges of the second membrane subpart other than the second anchored edge are non-anchored.
2. The sound producing cell of claim 1 , wherein a first ratio of the membrane is larger than 2, and the first ratio of the membrane is a ratio of a first length of a first side of the membrane to a second length of a second side of the membrane in the top view.
3. The sound producing cell of claim 1 , wherein the membrane comprises:
a first slit formed between the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart in the first direction, wherein a first non-anchored edge of the first membrane subpart is defined by the first slit, and the first non-anchored edge is opposite to the first anchored edge in the first direction; and
a second slit, wherein a second non-anchored edge of the first membrane subpart is defined by the second slit, and the second non-anchored edge is adjacent to the first anchored edge.
4. The sound producing cell of claim 3 , wherein the first non-anchored edge of the first membrane subpart and a third non-anchored edge of the second membrane subpart are defined by the first slit, and the third non-anchored edge of the second membrane subpart is opposite to the second anchored edge of the second membrane subpart in the first direction.
5. The sound producing cell of claim 1 , wherein the membrane further comprises a first spring directly connected between the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart.
6. The sound producing cell of claim 5 , wherein the membrane further comprises:
at least one slit formed between the first membrane subpart and the second membrane subpart;
wherein at least a portion of the first spring is formed because of the at least one slit.
7. The sound producing cell of claim 6 , wherein one of the at least one slit comprises a hook-shaped curved pattern.
