Abstract
This study introduces a novel thermoacoustic (TA) focusing system enhanced by Airy beam-based acoustic metasurfaces, significantly improving acoustic focusing and efficiency. The system integrates a TA emitter, fabricated from carbon nanotube (CNT) films, with a binary acoustic metasurface capable of generating quasi-Airy beams. Through finite element simulations, the system's heat conduction, acoustic focusing, and self-healing properties were thoroughly analyzed. The results demonstrate that the system achieves superior sub-wavelength focusing, tunable focal length via frequency control, and robust self-healing, even in the presence of obstacles. These findings address current limitations in TA emitters and suggest broader applications in medical ultrasound and advanced technology.
