Improving the performance of structure-embedded acoustic lenses via gradient-index local inhomogeneities
We investigate the use of graded inhomogeneities in order to enhance the focusing and collimation performance of structure-embedded acoustic metamaterial lenses. The type of inhomogeneity exploited in this study consists in axial symmetric exponential-like gradients of either material or geometric p...
