Short summary
Bistability is a mechanical phenomenon resulting in two stable, switchable states similar to a light switch. Micromachined piezoelectric bistable loudspeakers can utilize this effect to generate ultrasonic pulses with substantial loudness for applications such as distance measurements. In this work, we study different aspects of such a micromachined ultrasonic loudspeaker and demonstrate that such a device is feasible for ranging applications.
