Abstract
The negative refraction of transverse elastic waves is demonstrated experimentally in a two-dimensional phononic crystal (PC) made of a square lattice of cylindrical air cavities in an aluminum matrix. Dispersion curves of elastic waves in this PC exhibit a unique branch with phase and group velocities of opposite signs in a broad frequency range. Measurement of refraction angles through prismatic PC included in an aluminum block demonstrates negative refraction of elastic transverse wave.
