Mesh nebulizers are driven by a 'piezo-element' and use ultrasonic frequencies to vibrate the mesh which converts medicine to mist. Ultrasonic nebulizers, by contrast, produce ultrasonic waves directly into the solution causing aerosol to be produced at the liquid surface. Jet nebulizers simply work along with an air compressor that shoots a jet stream which converts medication to mist inside the medication cup.
