We investigate the possibility to model a metasurface, defined as a zero-thickness sheet of surface polarization currents, by a thin slab, characterized by a subwavelength thickness and usual voluminal medium parameters. First, we elaborate a general equivalence relation between the metasurface and the slab in terms of average electromagnetic fields. Then, we derive exact relations between the metasurface and slab susceptibilities and validate them by full-wave simulations. Finally, we discuss the simple and insightful Average Field Approximation (AFA) formula, illustrate its inappropriate for strong metasurface field transformations, and establish its range of validity. All of these developments are restricted to the simplest case of a uniform isotropic metasurface under normal plane wave incidence. We conclude from the complexity of the equivalence for this case, that a metasurface is generally best modeled in terms of Generalized Sheet Transition Conditions (GSTCs).

We theoretically and experimentally propose two designs of broadband low-frequency acoustic metasurface absorbers (Sample I/Sample II) for the frequency ranges of 458Hz~968Hz and 231Hz~491Hz (larger than 1 octave), with absorption larger than 0.8, an d having the ultra-thin thickness of 5.2cm and 10.4cm respectively ({lambda}/15 for the lowest working frequency and {lambda}/7.5 for the highest frequency). The designed supercell consists of 16 different unit cells corresponding to 16 eigen frequencies for resonant absorptions. The coupling of multiple resonances leads to broadband absorption effect in the full range of the targeted frequency spectrum. In particular, we propose to combine gradient-change channel and coiled structure to achieve simultaneous impedance matching and minimal occupied space, leading to the ultra-thin thickness of the metasurface absorbers. Our conceived ultra-thin low-frequency broadband absorbers may lead to pragmatic implementations and applications in noise control field.

This paper describes a new kind of acoustic metasurface with multiply resonant units, which have previously been used to induce multiple resonances and effectively produce negative mass density and bulk/shear moduli. The proposed acoustic metasurface can be constructed using real materials and does not rely on an ideal rigid material. Therefore, it can work well in a water background. The thickness of the acoustic metasurface is about two orders of magnitude smaller than the acoustic wavelength in water. The design of a unit group is proposed to avoid the phase discretization becoming too fine in such a long-wavelength condition. We demonstrate that the proposed acoustic metasurface achieves good performance in anomalous reflection, focusing, and carpet cloaking.

We propose to use logarithmic spiral resonators for efficient absorption of microwaves. By combining their scale invariant geometries and Fabry-Perot-type resonances stemming from the fundamental TM mode, we realize a microwave metasurface with broad band absorption performance. The metasurface comprises logarithmic spiral resonators backed with a metallic surface and it can absorb >95% of incident microwave energy within the frequency range of 6 GHz - 37 GHz. We discuss the physics underlying the broadband absorption and the crucial role of vortex energy flow. The study opens a new direction of electromagnetic wave absorption by employing the scale invariance of Maxwell equations.

Beam steering is one of the main challenges in energy-efficient and high-speed infrared light communication. To date, active beam-steering schemes based on a spatial light modulator (SLM) or micro-electrical mechanical system (MEMS) mirror, as well a s the passive ones based on diffractive gratings, have been demonstrated for infrared light communication. Here, for the first time to our knowledge, an infrared beam is steered by 35{deg} on one side empowered by a passively field-programmable metasurface. By combining the centralized control of wavelength and polarization, a remote passive metasurface can steer the infrared beam in a remote access point. The proposed system keeps scalability to support multiple beams, flexibility to steer the beam, high optical efficiency, simple and cheap devices on remote sides, and centralized control (low maintenance cost), while it avoids disadvantages such as grating loss, a small coverage area, and a bulky size. Based on the proposed beam-steering technology, we also demonstrated a proof-of-concept experiment system with a data rate of 20 Gbps.

In this work, we develop the gradient metasurface is constructed of a locally anisotropic resonant structure, comprising a steel cylinder with an elliptical rubber coating embedded in epoxy. The deflective angles of rubber ellipses in the locally ani sotropic resonant unit provide a method of controlling the reflected phase. Phase shifts of the reflected wave can cover the 2pi range. With an appropriate design of the phase profiles along the acoustic metasurface, we can achieve anomalous reflection and Bessel beam. The locally anisotropic resonant units have significant potential for engineering and manipulating acoustic wavefronts
