We present the experimental demonstration of self-collimation (subdiffractive propagation) of an ultrasonic beam inside a three-dimensional sonic crystal. The crystal is formed by two crossed steel cylinders structures in a woodpile-like…
We demonstrate strongly collimated beaming, at audible frequencies, in a three-dimensional acoustic phononic crystal where the wavelength is commensurate with the crystal elements; the crystal is a seemingly simple rectangular cuboid…
We show some new properties of the acoustic propagation in two-dimensional sonic crystals, formed by parallel rigid cylinders placed in air. The transmission through slabs of sonic crystals and the associated band structures are considered.…
We report the propagation of high-intensity sound beams in a sonic crystal, under self-collimation or reduced-divergence conditions. The medium is a fluid with elastic quadratic nonlinearity, where the dominating nonlinear effect is…
We propose and numerically demonstrate an efficient cleaning of spatial structure (spatial filtering) of sound beams by propagating them through at least twodimensional sonic crystals, i.e. through acoustic structures periodically modulated…
When waves are propagated through a medium with scatters and these elements are positioned periodically, as in the crystal structures, multiple scattering leads to a phenomenon known as banded structures. This means that waves can propagate…
We predict theoretically the nondiffractive propagation of sonic waves in periodic acoustic media (sonic crystals), by expansion into a set of plane waves (Bloch mode expansion), and by finite difference time domain calculations of finite…
It is demonstrated that sonic crystals (periodic structures of sound scatterers) can be used to design acoustic barriers that attenuate efficiently broadband noise. Traffic noise is chosen here as an example in which our design procedure is…
This paper presents a theoretical study of the phenomenon of acoustic imaging by sonic crystals, which are made of two-dimensional regular arrays of rigid cylinders placed in parallel in air. The scattering of acoustic waves is computed…
Crystallization and radiation of accelerator beams is considered. For the first time it is shown that crystallization conditions for charged particle beams differs from those of plasma. Crystallization conditions of charged relativistic…
The recent interest in the imaging possibilities of photonic crystals (superlensing, superprism, optical mirages etc...) call for a detailed analysis of beam propagation inside a finite periodic structure. In this paper, an answer to the…
An easy-to-implement scheme to split self-collimated acoustic beams in sonic crystals (SCs) is proposed by introducing line-defects into SCs, by which an incoming self-collimated beam can be split into a 90 degree-bended one and a…
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel mechanism of sound wave concentration based on soft reflections in chirped sonic crystals. The reported controlled field enhancement occurs at around particular (bright) planes in the…
We present a systematic study of the frequency band structure of acoustic waves in crystals consisting of nonoverlapping solid spheres in a fluid. We consider colloidal crystals consisting of polystyrene spheres in water, and an opal…
We have performed an x-ray holotomography study of a three-dimensional (3D) photonic band gap crystal. The crystals was made from silicon by CMOS-compatible methods. We manage to obtain the 3D material density throughout the fabricated…
The propagation of surface (Rayleigh) waves over a rotating orthorhombic crystal is studied. The crystal possesses three crystallographic axes, normal to the symmetry planes: the half-space is cut along a plane normal to one of these axes,…
The recent interest in the imaging possibilities of photonic crystals (superlensing, superprism, optical mirages etc...) call for a detailed analysis of beam propagation inside a finite periodic structure. In this paper, we give such a…
The PhD thesis is devoted to the study of second harmonic generation of narrow beams in photonic crystals. The basic idea is that if both frequencies, the fundamental and second harmonics are in the region of self-collimation, then the…
The propagation of a modulated beam of charged particles in a planar crystal channel is investigated. It is demonstrated that the beam preserves its modulation at sufficiently large penetration depths to ensure the feasibility of using a…
We show that theory predictions for volume reflection in bent crystals agree with recent experimental data. This makes possible to predict volume reflection angle and efficiency in a broad range of energy for various crystals. A simple…
