Catalytic Transformation of Greenhouse Gases in a Membrane Reactor

An acoustic filter array of microelectromechanical beams each having a characteristic resonance frequency response to mechanical and/or acoustical vibration. The array divides incoming acoustic signals into a plurality of discrete spectral components, each of which may be separately detected and converted into corresponding electrical signals. The acoustic filter may be integrated onto a single crystal silicon substrate with electrical circuity for performing acoustic signal processing functions required for applications such as speech processing and simulating the physiological function of the ear.
