Perfect electromagnetic and sound absorption via subwavelength holes array
Journal Title: Opto-Electronic Advances - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 8
Abstract
Broadband sound absorption at low frequency is notoriously difficult because the thickness of the absorber should be proportional to the working wavelength. Here we report an acoustic metasurface absorber following the recent theory developed for electromagnetics. We first show that there is an intrinsic analogy between the impedance description of sound and electromagnetic metasurfaces. Subsequently, we demonstrated that the classic Salisbury and Jaumann absorbers can be realized for acoustic applications with the aid of micro-perforated plates. Finally, the concept of coherent perfect absorption is introduced to achieve ultrathin and ultra-broadband sound absorbers. We anticipate that the approach proposed here can provide helpful guidance for the design of future acoustic and electromagnetic devices.

All-metallic wide-angle metasurfaces for multifunctional polarization manipulation
Optical camouflage is a magical capability of animals as first noticed in 1794 by Erasmus Darwin in Zoonomia, but current biomimetic camouflage strategies cannot be readily applied in complex environments involving multi...
Probing defects in ZnO by persistent phosphorescence
Native point defects in ZnO are so complicated that most of them are still debating issues, although they have been studied for decades. In this paper, we experimentally reveal two sub-components usually hidden in the lo...
