Patent attributes
An electrostatic loudspeaker comprises a membrane structure and an electrode structure. The membrane structure comprises a central membrane portion and a circumferential membrane portion. The electrode structure is configured to electrostatically interact with the membrane structure for causing a movement of the membrane structure along an axis of movement. The electrode structure comprises a circumferential electrode portion and an opening, the circumferential electrode portion being substantially aligned to the circumferential membrane portion and the opening being substantially aligned to the central membrane portion with respect to a direction parallel to the axis of movement. In an end position of the movement of the membrane structure, the central membrane portion is configured to extend at least partially through the opening. A method for operating an electrostatic loudspeaker and a method for manufacturing an electrostatic loudspeaker are also described.
