Planar Microphone Based on Piezoelectric Electrospun Poly(gamma-benzyl-alpha, L-glutamate) Nanofibers

Unmet NeedModern velocity and pressure microphones are highly sensitive instruments. Exposure to extreme heat, pressure, water, or detritus can cause the instruments to fail. Although specialized microphones for use in extreme conditions do exist, they are expensive to manufacture, difficult to produce, and single purpose (i.e. water proof or heat resistant...
