Abstract (en)

An electrostatic driver (10) comprises an acoustically transparent first electrode (12) an acoustically transparent second electrode (14) spaced apart from the first electrode (12) to define a space between the first and the second electrodes (12 and 14). A charged diaphragm (18) is suspended in the space between the first and the second electrodes (12 and 14). The first and the second electrodes (12 and 14) are partially insulated to generate A.C. and D.C. electric fields dissimilar in strength and form in the said space in which the diaphragm (18) is suspended to optimize the forces moving the diaphragm (18).
