Abstract
This paper reports an ultra-thin polymer loudspeaker based on a piezoelectric Electro-Active Polymer actuator. We present the development of a whole polymer loudspeaker. Electrical, electromechanical and acoustic characterizations were performed on this device and have proven its functionality. Satisfying audible sounds and music can be played using our polymer loudspeaker demonstrator. © 2017 IEEE.
