Theoretical requirements and inverse design for broadband perfect absorption of low-frequency waterborne sound by ultrathin metasurface

Abstract Effective absorption of low-frequency waterborne sound with subwavelength absorbers has always been a challenging work. In this paper, we derive two theoretical requirements for broadband perfect absorption of low-frequency waterborne sound by ultrathin acoustic metasurface under a finite-t...
