Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The requirements for cochlear implants (CIs) vary over time and go beyond present device performance. In this work, capacitive micromachined acoustic receivers (CMARs) are adopted to promote low-frequency acoustic transducer development. Nowadays, half-implantable CIs are based on piezoelectric materials and face problems of large volume and low biocompatibility. CMARs can take advantage of electronic integration with bio-compatible materials to overcome obstructions, address issues of the self-heating effects, and fill narrow bandwidths from piezoelectric materials, which gives CMARs the potential to fulfill full-implantable CIs. CMARs are the improved product based on capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs). The commonplace micromachined materials for CMUTs limit the receivers' eigen frequencies of the first bulking mode shape in megahertz (MHz). Herein, flexible electronics with low Young's moduli, particularly, are regarded as film candidates for CMARs. Finite element modeling (FEM) is applied to demonstrate that CMARs with the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) film can achieve the human hearing range 12.44 kHz, which has been verified by characterization of fabricated CMARs, 13.11 kHz. These matched and profound results indicate that low-frequency CMARs may lead to the development of full-implantable CIs in medical and scientific research fields.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
