Deep subwavelength ultrasonic imaging using optimized holey structured metamaterials
TLDR
The experimental demonstration of deep subwavelength ultrasonic imaging of defects in metallic samples with a feature size of λ/25 using holey-structured metamaterial lenses shows how the extraordinary transmission capacity of holey structured metam material comes about by the coupling of higher frequencies in the incident ultrasonic wave field to resonant modes of the lens.Abstract:
This paper reports the experimental demonstration of deep subwavelength ultrasonic imaging of defects in metallic samples with a feature size of λ/25 using holey-structured metamaterial lenses. Optimal dimensions of the metamaterial’s geometric parameters are determined using numerical simulation and the physics of wave propagation through holey lenses. The paper also shows how the extraordinary transmission capacity of holey structured metamaterials comes about by the coupling of higher frequencies in the incident ultrasonic wave field to resonant modes of the lens.read more

Dark acoustic metamaterials as super absorbers for low-frequency sound
TL;DR: A thin-film acoustic metamaterial, comprising an elastic membrane decorated with asymmetric rigid platelets that aims to totally absorb low-frequency airborne sound at selective resonance frequencies ranging from 100-1,000 Hz, can reach almost unity absorption at frequencies where the relevant sound wavelength in air is three orders of magnitude larger than the membrane thickness.

Focusing of sound in a 3D phononic crystal.
TL;DR: Wave propagation was found to depend dramatically on both frequency and incident direction, which leads to very large negative refraction, which can be used to focus a diverging ultrasonic beam into a narrow focal spot with a large focal depth.
