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.…
Elastic cylindrical shells are fitted with an internal mechanism which is optimized so that, in the quasi-static regime, the combined system exhibits prescribed effective acoustic properties. The mechanism consists of a central mass…
Colloidal assembly represents a powerful method for the fabrication of functional materials. In this article, we describe how acoustic radiation forces can guide the assembly of colloidal particles into structures that serve as microscopic…
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…
A sharp bending scheme for the self-collimation of acoustic waves is proposed by simply truncating the sonic crystals. An all-angle and wide-band 90{\deg}-bending wave guide is demonstrated with nearly perfect transmissions for Gaussian…
Due to their ability to confine light, optical resonators are of great importance to science and technology, yet their performances are often limited by out-of-plane scattering losses from inevitable fabrication imperfections. Here, we…
Radial sonic crystals (RSC) are fluidlike structures infinitely periodic along the radial direction. They have been recently introduced and are only possible thanks to the anisotropy of specially designed acoustic metamaterials [see Phys.…
Recently, the domain of topological insulators in condensed matter physics has been teeming with intriguing and very exciting discoveries. Notably, the capacity of guiding currents towards specific directions according to the spin of the…
In this paper we study and design quasi-2D optomechanical crystals, waveguides, and resonant cavities formed from patterned slabs. Two-dimensional periodicity allows for in-plane pseudo-bandgaps in frequency where resonant optical and…
Emulsion droplets trapped in an ultrasonic levitator behave in two ways that solid spheres do not: (1) Individual droplets spin rapidly about an axis parallel to the trapping plane, and (2) coaxially spinning droplets form long chains…
We develop a method to design tunable quasiperiodic structures of particles suspended in a fluid by controlling standing acoustic waves. One application of our results is to ultrasound directed self-assembly, which allows fabricating…
Although metamaterials have been widely used for controlling elastic waves through bandgap engineering, the directed guidance of stress waves in non-periodic structures has remained a challenge. This work demonstrates that spatially graded…
A theoretical investigation is made of acoustic wave propagation in a periodically stubbed waveguide. In general the waveguide segments and stubs are made of different materials. The acoustic wave in such a system has two independent…
Motivated by a recent experiment on acoustic lenses, we perform numerical calculations based on a multiple scattering technique to investigate the focusing of acoustic waves with sonic crystals formed by rigid cylinders in air. The focusing…
We investigate the prospects for micron-scale acoustic wave components and circuits on chip in solid planar structures that do not require suspension. We leverage evanescent guiding of acoustic waves by high slowness contrast materials…
We show that anisotropic planar anti-guiding waveguide structures with two radiation channels towards the surrounding cladding materials can support unidirectional guided resonances (UGRs), where radiation is cancelled in one of the…
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…
Acoustics provides a powerful modality with which to 'see' the mechanical properties of a wide range of elastic materials. It is particularly adept at probing soft materials where excellent contrast and propagation distance can be achieved.…
We observe and analyze d-wave resonant scattering of bosons in tightly confining harmonic waveguides. It is shown that the d-wave resonance emerges in the quasi-1D regime as an imprint of a 3D d-wave shape resonance. A scaling relation for…
On-chip technology based on acoustic waves is a strong asset in modern telecommunication with the prospects of becoming a cornerstone of next-generation devices. In this context, mapping and manipulating acoustic waves through coherent…
