Design and Implementation of Low-Voltage Tunable Capacitive Micro-Machined Transducers (CMUT) for Portable Applications
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUT) are MEMS-based transducers with advantages over conventional ultrasonic transducers, such as their small size, the ease of integration with semiconductor electronics, and batch fabrication. In this study, the effect of different membrane topologies on the displacement, resonant frequency, and output pressure of the CMUT membrane is investigated in the transmission mode in an air environment. A novel structural-support feature, the rocker stem, is introduced, where the membrane is weakly held to the substrate in order to minimize mechanical constraints. Four different CMUT topologies are designed and assessed to analyze the impacts of topological variations. A new CMUT array configuration is also designed to provide an approach for maximizing CMUT density. This study aims to contribute to efficient CMUT design and the determination of optimum structural parameters for portable applications in air.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
