Cylindrical 3D printed configurable ultrasonic lens for subwavelength focusing enhancement

Abstract In this study, we report the characteristics of acoustic jets obtained through a mesoscale (radius less than 5 wavelengths) ABS cylinder made with a 3D printer. We have analyzed the influence of cylinder size on the characteristic parameters of an acoustic jet, such as maximum acoustic inte...
