Abstract
Metamaterial and metasurface-based passive phased arrays provide novel means for the manipulation of acoustic fields. As passive elements, metasurfaces can provide local phase delays which enable the steering of sound fields and facilitate extraordinary wave phenomena. Some aspects that affect the performance of these passive elements include the spatial resolution/aliasing effect, the component resonances that shape the transmission spectra, and the thermoviscous losses that limit the transmission efficiency [X. Jiang, L. Yong, and L. Zhang, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 141(4), EL363–368, April 2017]. Efficient acoustic field characterization is essential for investigating these issues with the ultimate aim of optimizing the geometrical parameters of the structure. This talk will address some details of the physics of metamaterial-based passive arrays and the broadband approach for assessing their transmission properties, with the aim of improving the design cycle and exploring novel uses.
