As 2D materials with subwavelength structures, elastic metasurfaces show remarkable abilities to manipulate elastic waves at will through artificial boundary conditions. However, the application prospects of current metasurfaces may be restricted by their phase-only modulating boundaries. Herein, we present the next generation of elastic metasurfaces by additionally incorporating amplitude-shift modulation. A general theory for target wave fields steered by metasurfaces is proposed by modifying the Huygens-Fresnel principle. As examples, two amplitude-shift metasurfaces concerning flexural waves in thin plates are carried out: one is to transform a cylindrical wave into a Gaussian beam by elaborating both amplitude and phase shifts, and the other one is to focus the incidence by amplitude modulations only. These examples coincide well over theoretical calculations, numerical simulations and experimental tests. This work may underlie the design of metasurfaces with complete control over guided elastic waves, and may extend to more sophisticated applications, such as analog signal processing and holographic imaging.

Requiring neither active components nor complex designs, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a generic framework for undistorted asymmetric elastic-wave transmission in a thin plate just using a layer of lossless metasurface. The asymmetric tra
nsmission stems from the uneven diffraction of +1 and -1 orders on opposite sides of the metasurface, respectively. Compared with previous loss-induced strategies, the present metasurface maintains a nearly total transmission for the transportation side, but a total reflection from the opposite side, exhibiting a higher contrast ratio of transmission. Moreover, we illustrate that this strong asymmetric behavior is robust to the frequency, the incident angle and the loss effect. The present work paves new avenues to compact rectification, high resolution ultrasonography, vibration and noise control in elastodynamics and acoustics.
Waveguides are critically important components in microwave, THz, and optical technologies. Due to recent progress in two-dimensional materials, metasurfaces can be efficiently used to design novel waveguide structures which confine the electromagnet
ic energy while the structure is open. Here, we introduce a special type of such structures formed by two penetrable metasurfaces which have complementary isotropic surface impedances. We theoretically study guided modes supported by the proposed structure and discuss the corresponding dispersion properties. Furthermore, we show the results for different scenarios in which the surface impedances possess non-resonant or resonant characteristics, and the distance between the metasurfaces changes from large values to the extreme limit of zero. As an implication of this work, we demonstrate that there is a possibility to excite two modes with orthogonal polarizations having the same phase velocity within a broad frequency range. This property is promising for applications in leaky-wave antennas and field focusing.
Coordinate-transformation-inspired optical devices have been mostly examined in the continuous-wave regime: the performance of an invisibility cloak, which has been demonstrated for monochromatic excitation, %would inevitably is likely to deteriorate
for short pulses. Here we investigate pulse dynamics of flexural waves propagating in transformed plates. We propose a practical realization of a waveshifter and a rotator for flexural waves based on the coordinate transformation method. Time-resolved measurements reveal how the waveshifter deviates a short pulse from its initial trajectory, with no reflection at the bend and no spatial and temporal distortion of the pulse. Extending our strategy to cylindrical coordinates, we design a wave rotator. We demonstrate experimentally how a pulsed plane wave is twisted inside the rotator, while its wavefront is recovered behind the rotator and the pulse shape is preserved, with no extra time delay. We propose the realization of the dynamical mirage effect, where an obstacle appears oriented in a deceptive direction.
In this paper, we introduce and study parallel-plate waveguides formed by two penetrable metasurfaces having arbitrary isotropic sheet impedances. We investigate guided modes of this structure and derive the corresponding dispersion relations. The co
nditions under which transverse magnetic and transverse electric modes can exist are discussed, and different scenarios including lossless (reactive) metasurfaces, gain-and-loss sheets and extreme cases are under general consideration. Resonant and non-resonant dispersive sheets and corresponding extreme cases are investigated. Our theoretical results are confirmed with full-wave simulated results considering practical realizations of the proposed parallel-plate waveguide which exploit two frequency-selective surfaces. Finally, the obtained theoretical formulas are applied to study the dispersion diagrams for waves along resonant sheets at different distances between the two identical or different metasurfaces. We hope that this study is useful for future applications at both microwave and optical regimes.
Nonlinear nanostructured surfaces provide a paradigm shift in nonlinear optics with new ways to control and manipulate frequency conversion processes at the nanoscale, also offering novel opportunities for applications in photonics, chemistry, materi
al science, and biosensing. Here, we develop a general approach to employ sharp resonances in metasurfaces originated from the physics of bound states in the continuum for both engineering and enhancing the nonlinear response. We study experimentally the third-harmonic generation from metasurfaces composed of symmetry-broken silicon meta-atoms and reveal that the harmonic generation intensity depends critically on the asymmetry parameter. We employ the concept of the critical coupling of light to the metasurface resonances to uncover the effect of radiative and nonradiative losses on the nonlinear conversion efficiency.
