Current types of microphones are described and compared with designs based on a bimorph diaphragm made from piezoelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride) film. A pressure operated microphone for telephone handsets has been fully developed. Polymer film diaphragms lend themselves to highly symmetrical designs so that both first and second order pressure gradient noise cancelling units have been based on them and compare well with the available alternatives.
