Reciprocity in reflection and transmission: what is a "phonon diode"?

, 2012
The newly popular topic of "phonon diodes" is discussed in the context of a broader issue of reciprocity in reflection/transmission (R-T) of waves. We first review a theorem well known in electromagnetism and optics but underappreciated in acoustics and ...
