1. An electromagnetic frequency addressable transducer device comprising:
a substrate, including a polymer base material including an electromagnetic energy responsive material, wherein the substrate includes multiple layers respectively having different material compositions, and wherein individual ones of the multiple layers include different responses to an applied AC electromagnetic input signal; and
an electrically conductive AC electromagnetic input structure, included in or directly or indirectly on the substrate, configured to receive an applied AC electromagnetic input signal for coupling electromagnetic energy into the substrate for actuating a transducer in the substrate in response to the applied AC electromagnetic input signal.
