Abstract:
Over the past decade, the emergence of acoustic metamaterials has considerably broadened the possibility of acoustic wave manipulations. Within this area, exotic effective constitutive parameters (mass density and bulk modulus) are a most hotly pursued topic, at the core of which is the realization of acoustic double negativity. Here, we show with experiments, simulations and homogenization that a single resonant structure can achieve acoustic double negativity. The metamaterial is comprised of two decorated elastic membranes, which are connected together by a rigid ring. Impedance measurement reveals that the system’s transport behavior is governed by the three eigenmode resonances in the sub-kHz regime, which are separately tunable via system parameters. Measured displacement profiles at the sample surfaces using laser vibrometer show that the system’s eigenmodes are, respectively, dipolar or monopolar in their nature. The simplicity of the metamaterial also enables us to retrieve its effective mass density and effective bulk modulus by performing homogenization. The results help explaining the physics behind the transport properties, and confirm that a double-negative passband is realized in a frequency range (around 500–800 Hz). Excellent agreement between experiments, simulations, and theory is achieved.
