Recent years have heralded the introduction of metasurfaces that advantageously combine the vision of sub- wavelength wave manipulation, with the design, fabrication and size advantages associated with surface excitation. An important topic…
We consider wave propagation along fluid-loaded structures which take the form of an elastic plate augmented by an array of resonators forming a metasurface, that is, a surface structured with sub-wavelength resonators. Such surfaces have…
We demonstrate that a rainbow-based metasurface, created by a graded array of resonant rods attached to an elastic beam, operates as a mechanical delay-line by slowing down surface elastic waves to take advantage of wave interaction with…
Inspired by recent graded metamaterials designs, we create phononic arrays of micro-resonators for frequency signal amplification and wave filtering. Leveraging suspended waveguides on a thick silicon substrate, we hybridize surface…
Spatiotemporal metasurfaces, characterized by dynamic variations in both space and time, enable functionalities unattainable with passive metasurfaces. In this study, we propose a novel concept of parametric metasurfaces capable of…
Metasurface Energy Harvesters (MEHs) have emerged as a prominent enabler of highly efficient Radio Frequency (RF) energy harvesters. This survey delves into the fundamentals of the MEH technology, providing a comprehensive overview of their…
This work studies a broadband graded metamaterial, which integrates the piezoelectric energy harvesting function targeting low-frequency structural vibrations, lying below 100 Hz. The device combines a graded metamaterial with beam-like…
It is well known in metamaterials that local resonance and hybridization phenomena dramatically influence the shape of dispersion curves; the metasurface created by a cluster of resonators, subwavelength rods, atop an elastic surface being…
Typical acoustic refractive metasurfaces governed by generalized Snell law require several types of subwavelength subunits to provide an extra phase gradient along the surface. This design strategy, however, has several kinds of drawback.…
We experimentally achieve wave mode conversion and rainbow trapping in an elastic waveguide loaded with an array of resonators. Rainbow trapping is a phenomenon that induces wave confinement as a result of a spatial variation of the wave…
Important distinctions are made between two related wave control mechanisms that act to spatially separate frequency components; these so-called rainbow mechanisms either slow or reverse guided waves propagating along a graded line array.…
Resonant metasurfaces are of paramount importance in addressing the growing demand for reduced thickness and complexity, while ensuring high optical efficiency. This becomes particularly crucial in overcoming fabrication challenges…
In this article the physics of horizontally polarized shear waves travelling across a locally resonant metasurface in an unconsolidated granular medium is experimentally and numerically explored. The metasurface is comprised of an…
Metasurfaces formed of arrays of subwavelength resonators are often tuned to 'critically couple' with incident radiation, so that at resonance dissipative and radiative damping are balanced and absorption is maximised. Such design criteria…
We study parametric amplification of electromagnetic waves using metasurfaces. We design a variable capacitor-loaded metasurface that can amplify incident electromagnetic waves. We analyze various regimes of operation of the system and find…
Metasurfaces (MSs) have been utilized to manipulate different properties of electromagnetic waves. By combining local control over the wave amplitude, phase, and polarization into a single tunable structure, a multi-functional and…
Time-varying metamaterials and photonic time crystals offer a powerful route to wave amplification through temporal modulation of material parameters. Here, we experimentally demonstrate amplified up-conversion of free-space electromagnetic…

We consider the canonical problem of an array of rods, which act as resonators, placed on an elastic substrate; the substrate being either a thin elastic plate or an elastic half-space. In both cases the flexural plate, or Rayleigh surface,…
While elastic metasurfaces offer a remarkable and very effective approach to the subwalength control of stress waves, their use in practical applications is severely hindered by intrinsically narrow band performance. This work introduces…
