Flat acoustic lens by acoustic grating with curled slits

, 2014
We design a flat sub-wavelength lens that can focus acoustic wave. We analytically study the transmission through an acoustic grating with curled slits, which can serve as a material with tunable impedance and refractive index for acoustic waves.

Parametric Acoustic Lens Sonar [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1974
Sum and difference frequency parametric arrays are usually generated in the field of relatively large planar electroacoustic transducers by the transmission of two high-frequency primary waves. The approach taken in the present paper utilizes one or more small transducers located on the focal surface of a relatively large acoustic lens. Upon projection,
