Broadband extraordinary transmission and focusing of sound with flat thin meta-lens

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

We report a broadband metalens that can realize wavefront modulation with high energy efficiency. Based on the impedance-matched gradient material, we theoretically and experimentally study a gradient index helical-structured metamaterial that can modulate sound wavefront with near perfect transmission over a broad bandwidth. A thin flat metalens is constructed to demonstrate sound focusing with the extraordinary transmission for more than 1/3 octave band. It is anticipated that this engineered material may be used in ultrasonography, ultrasound surgery, and DNA fragmentation.
