Enhanced sensing and conversion of ultrasonic Rayleigh waves by elastic metasurfaces

Abstract Recent years have heralded the introduction of metasurfaces that advantageously combine the vision of sub-wavelength wave manipulation, with the design, fabrication and size advantages associated with surface excitation. An important topic within metasurfaces is the tailored rainbow trappin...
