Description
Metamaterials are artificially structured materials designed to exhibit extraordinary physical properties not found in nature. They have been utilized for a wide range of applications such as beam shaping, lensing, and microscopy. In recent years, metamaterials have also been explored for their potential in refractive index sensing. A metasurface-based ultrasound sensor can provide high flexibility, sensitivity, resolution, and versatility, making it a promising candidate for various applications, including medical imaging and non-destructive testing. We design and study optical metasurfaces to be utilized as ultrasound wave sensors, demonstrating the potential of metamaterials in multimodal all-optical ultrasound sensing.
