PROGRAMMABLE METASURFACE FOR REAL TIME CONTROL OF BROADBAND ELASTIC RAYS AND METHOD

摘要

A programmable metasurface and method is described having a plurality of parallel slits in an elastic substrate plate defining a plurality of unit cells, each having an actuator beam and a sensing beam with a slit therebetween. Each sensing beam has a pair of sensors for sensing flexural waves in the substrate. The actuator beam has a piezoelectric actuator that is controlled by a control circuit where the control circuit generates an actuator signal and where the control circuit compares the preceding actuator signal to the difference between the sensors and an electrical transfer function to result in the metasurface being able to perform a desired function.
