High-sensitivity acoustic sensors from nanofibre webs

Polymer nanofibres can be used to detect mechanical motion. Here, the authors use electrospun piezoelectric nanofibre webs to detect acoustic waves at frequencies below 500 Hz with a good sensitivity at low pressure levels, and study the impact of the fibres morphology and crystalline phase.
