Focusing of longitudinal ultrasonic waves in air with an aperiodic flat lens.
Modeling and experimental results of an ultrasonic aperiodic flat lens for use in air are presented. Predictive modeling of the lens is performed using a hybrid genetic-greedy algorithm constrained to a linear structure. The optimized design parameters are used to fabricate a lens. A method combining a fiber-disk arrangement and scanning laser vibrometer measurements is developed to characteriz...
متن کاملFocusing surface waves with an inhomogeneous metamaterial lens.
We propose a new type of surface wave lens that is made of a circular in-plane inhomogeneous metamaterial slab and numerically demonstrate its capability to focus surface waves at optical frequencies. This approach can achieve a smaller focal spot size than the previously demonstrated Ag plasmonic lens. The use of inhomogeneous metamaterials is to decrease the high losses that are usually assoc...
متن کاملFocusing of electromagnetic waves by a left-handed metamaterial flat lens.
We present here the experimental results from research conducted on negative refraction and focusing by a two-dimensional (2D) left-handed metamaterial (LHM) slab. By measuring the refracted electromagnetic (EM) waves from a LHM slab, we find an effective refractive index of -1.86. A 2D scanning transmission measurement technique is used to measure the intensity distribution of the EM waves tha...
متن کاملFlat-Lens Focusing of Electron Beams in Graphene
Coupling electron beams carrying information into electronic units is fundamental in microelectronics. This requires precision manipulation of electron beams through a coupler with a good focusing ability. In graphene, the focusing of wide electron beams has been successfully demonstrated by a circular p-n junction. However, it is not favorable for information coupling since the focal length is...
متن کاملPhase changes of ultrasonic surface and bulk waves through focusing measured using non-contact ultrasonic methods
Focusing an ultrasonic surface or bulk wave to a point can maximise the amount of ultrasonic energy at a point and increase the sensitivity of a measurement. Using noncontact ultrasonic methods we focus an ultrasonic wave pulse on or in a sample. Focusing can be achieved by using a shaped source or by the surface profile of the sample itself. Experiments and modelling confirm the known result t...
