Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for an ultrasonic transducer. A substrate may include a main cavity, a secondary cavity, and a channel. The main cavity may have a greater depth than the secondary cavity. The secondary cavity may have a greater depth than channel. A first step may be formed where the main cavity and the secondary cavity overlap. A second step may be formed where the secondary cavity and the main cavity overlap. An electromechanically active device may be attached to the substrate at the first step and the second step such that a free end of the electromechanically active device is suspended over the main cavity. A membrane section may be bonded to the substrate such that the membrane covers the main cavity and the secondary cavity and is bonded to the free end of the electromechanically active.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for trench cutting with laser machining. A laminate material including a conductive layer and a non-conductive layer may be cut with a first cut using a UV-laser. The cutting of a second cut, using the UV-laser, may be started at a top electrode of the non-conductive layer based on the location of the first cut, wherein the second cut is wider than the first cut. The cutting of the second cut may be stopped partially though the non-conductive layer. The stopping of the cutting of the second cut partially though the non-conductive layer may include stopping the cutting of the second cut before cutting a bottom electrode of the non-conductive layer.

Abstract: A signal generator generates an electrical signal that is sent to an amplifier, which increases the power of the signal using power from a power source. The amplified signal is fed to a sender transducer to generate ultrasonic waves that can be focused and sent to a receiver. The receiver transducer converts the ultrasonic waves back into electrical energy and stores it in an energy storage device, such as a battery, or uses the electrical energy to power a device. In this way, a device can be remotely charged or powered without having to be tethered to an electrical outlet.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for membrane bonding. A photoresist may be applied to an ultrasonic device. A portion of the photoresist may be removed. A bonding agent may be applied a portion of the photoresist that is not removed. A membrane may be placed on the ultrasonic device such that the membrane is in contact with the ultrasonic device through the bonding agent and the photoresist. The membrane and the ultrasonic device may be placed in between a first flat plate and a second flat plate, such that the second flat plate rests on top of the membrane. Light pressure may be applied to the membrane. The light pressure may be applied by one or more of the weight of the second flat plate and a pressure providing device applying pressure to either or both of the first flat plate and the second flat plate.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for laminate material bonding. A bonding agent may be applied to a first layer. A second layer may be placed onto the bonding agent on the first layer to form a laminate material. The laminate material may be placed between a first piece of non-compliant material with a first piece of compliant material and a second piece of non-compliant material with a second piece of compliant material. The laminate material may be in contact with the first piece non-compliant material and the second piece of non-compliant material. Pressure may be applied to the laminate material by applying pressure to the first piece of compliant material for a curing time of the bonding agent.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for a multichannel waveform synthesis engine. A phase counter module counts to a value corresponding to a number of phases available, outputs a phase counter value indicating a current phase, and resets the phase counter value when the phase counter value reaches a phase counter reset value. Several channels each output a waveform. Each channel includes a phase module that receives the phase counter value output from the phase counter module, and activates an activation signal when the phase counter value indicates a phase assigned to the channel from the number of phases available. Each channel includes a pulse width module that receives the activation signal, and when the activation signal is activated, activates a waveform for a period of time indicated by a pulse width assigned to the channel, and deactivates the waveform after the period of time indicated by the pulse width assigned to the channel.
