A device (10) for sensing an acoustic signal is described. The device includes a flexible portion (14) including a laser active region (13) whose emitted wavelength varies according to a mechanical force acting on the flexible portion (14) and a flexible support member (24) operable to flex or bend according to the acoustic signal. The flexible portion (14) is coupled with the support member (24) so as to cause the flexible portion to flex or bend in accordance with the support member (24) thereby changing the emitted wavelength of the laser active region (13) of the flexible portion (14).
L'invention concerne un dispositif (10) permettant de détecter un signal acoustique. Ledit dispositif comprend une partie flexible (14) pourvue d'une région laser active (13), dont la longueur d'onde émise varie en fonction d'une force mécanique agissant sur la partie flexible (14) et un élément de support flexible (24) fonctionnant pour se fléchir ou se courber, selon le signal acoustique. Ladite partie flexible (14) est couplée à l'élément de support (24) de façon à faire fléchir ou à courber la partie flexible, par rapport à l'élément de support (24), ce qui permet de modifier la longueur d'onde émise de la région laser active (13) de la partie flexible (14).
