This document delves into the principles of electric fields and voltage distribution, specifically in the context of charged plates and the effects of introducing a third plate. It also addresses the sensitivity and construction of Brüel & Kjær systems, as well as the behavior of external loads under varying frequencies. Additionally, it examines electret microphones, their energy-harvesting capabilities, and key characteristics such as diaphragm stiffness and operational principles. The document is a valuable resource for understanding electrostatic devices and their applications.

Electret microphones • Are passive • Can harvest energy • No DC response (S(f=0)=0) • Two main variants: • Electret diaphragm • Cheap • Stiffness dominated by back volume • Electret backplate • Stable • Stiffness dominated by membrane tension • Can be used in reverse -> Electrostatic loudspeakers Are linear (p~V)
