Speakers work by vibrating a membrane to manipulate air and create sound waves. Now, engineers at MIT have developed mountable paper-thin speakers that can produce sound from any surface. The creators ...

MIT engineers have developed a paper-thin loudspeaker that can turn any surface into an active audio source. This thin-film loudspeaker produces sound with minimal distortion while using a fraction of ...

Big sound from a thin film. MIT engineers have developed a paper-thin, low-power loudspeaker that can turn any surface into an active audio source. This thin-film loudspeaker produces sound with ...

The adhesive label industry accounts for a substantial amount of printing activity and consequently produces a sizeable amount of industrial waste, particularly in the form of “spent” release liners.

Researchers created an ultrathin loudspeaker that can turn any rigid surface into a high-quality, active audio source. The fabrication process can enable the thin-film devices to be produced at scale.
