Popis: A three-dimensional acoustic Luneburg meta-lens has the advantage of refracting sound waves for all incident angles and focusing higher sound pressure compared to a two-dimensional lens. The lens made of plastic with a diameter of 120 mm was designed with thousands of lattice column-shaped meta-atoms to maintain its three-dimensional shape. The lens's three-dimensional focusing performance and acoustic imaging were simulated and measured at the frequency range of 5 kHz ~ 20 kHz. The omnidirectional property was confirmed by rotating the lens to change the incident angle and measuring the sound pressure. The development of these spherical Luneburg meta-lenses is expected to improve the performance of devices that require acoustic focusing.
