Pressure gradient microphone comprising a membrane (2) and a back electrode (4), the latter being provided with a film (6) of an electret material divided into semicircular sections, one of them being provided with a permanent electrostatic charge. The back electrode is supplied with an inverse potential by means of an external, adjustable voltage source. As a result the pressure gradient microphone is able to subtract two almost equal values from each other so as to indicate the pressure difference and consequently the pressure gradient with greater accuracy than previously known. |
