Focusing of surface-acoustic-wave fields on „100... GaAs surfaces
Focused surface-acoustic waves ~SAWs! provide a way to reach intense acoustic fields for electroand optoacoustic applications on semiconductors. We have investigated the focusing of SAWs by interdigital transducers ~IDTs! deposited on ~100!-oriented GaAs substrates. The focusing IDTs have curved fingers designed to account for the acoustic anisotropy of the substrate. Different factors that aff...
متن کاملOptimal wave focusing in acoustic media
Focusing waves inside a medium has applications in various science and engineering fields, e.g., in medicine, nondestructive evaluation, ocean acoustics, and geophysics. The goal in focusing is to concentrate the wave energy at a specific time and location inside a medium. Various techniques have been devised and used to achieve this goal. Time-reversal is a method that is routinely used to foc...
متن کاملWave Group Forcing of Low Frequency Surf Zone Motion
The nearshore potential vorticity balance of Bowen and Holman (1989) is expanded to include the forcing from wave group-induced radiation stresses. Model results suggest that the forcing from these radiation stresses can drive oscillations in the longshore current that have a spatial structure similar to linear shear instabilities of the longshore current. In addition, the forced response is ne...
متن کاملComputational method for acoustic wave focusing
Abstract: Scattering properties of a material are changed when the material is injected with small acoustically soft particles. It is shown that its new scattering behaviour can be understood as a solution of a potential scattering problem with the potential q explicitly related to the density of the small particles. In this paper we examine the inverse problem of designing a material with the ...
