Microphones play a pivotal role in extending the capabilities of voice interaction, biomedical testing, and trace gas detection. Acquiring acoustic signals with high sensitivity, low noise, and broad frequency response in a compact form is a well-known challenge. Herein, we report a novel diamond cantilever-based optical microphone (DCOM) using a Fabry-Perot interferometric structure. The DCOM achieves ultrahigh sensitivity (1433.8 mVamp/Pa or 1013.8 mVrms/Pa) and a minimum detectable acoustic pressure (0.24 µPa/Hz^1/2), both of which represent among the best values ever reported for a microphone with identical geometry, alongside a broad frequency response spanning from 500 Hz to 6.5 kHz. The outstanding performance of the DCOM can be attributed to the extraordinary mechanical strength, low energy dissipation, and low thermal noise of the diamond. In addition, the DCOM-based system demonstrates high performance in weak sound detection over a long distance, revealing its promising applications in various challenging industrial fields.
