Abstract

In this paper, a gradient-index lens is designed to implement an acoustic Bessel beam. Here, the wave from the point source is reshaped to the Bessel beam with the energy concentrated near the axial direction and almost no divergence. The two-dimensional distribution of the gradient refractive index is obtained based on the analysis of the impedance matching theory. The interface reflection is reduced significantly due to the impedance matching with air. The effect of the acoustic Bessel lens is found to work in a broadband with the use of the subwavelength unit cell and the finite-element simulations. Our results may provide the potential applications for medical ultrasound imaging and signal detection.
