Experimental realization of full control of reflected waves with subwavelength acoustic metasurfaces (2014, background): “The recent emergence of acoustic metamaterials [9-19] with properties unavailable in nature have broadened the horizon of acoustic waves and enabled fascinating phenomena such as sub-diffraction imaging [20-22], one-way transportation [23-27], cloaking [28-30], and super absorption [31, 32], etc.”
Reciprocity in reflection and transmission: What is a ‘phonon diode’? (2012, methodology): “In fact, under the methodology adopted in [7], the scheme shown in Fig.”
PT-symmetric acoustics (2015, background): “Previously, asymmetric acoustic transport has also been explored using nonlinear material [22].”
Colloquium : Phononics: Manipulating heat flow with electronic analogs and beyond (2011, methodology): “For example, 18 inspired by the thermal diode, an acoustic diode has been proposed by Liang et al. (2009) and subsequently realized experimentally by use of a nonlinear acoustic medium and phononic crystal (Liang et al., 2010), and a sonic crystal geometry (Li et al., 2011).”
