According to the heat conduction theory and effective medium theory, we fabricated a six-layer cylinder heat diffusion cloak by mixing heat conduction materials. We measured the time-dependant heat wave at the iso-temperature lines and the heat flux lines with a self-made heat wave device. The experiment results show that the iso-temperature lines are parallel outside the outer circle, the heat fluxes are parallel and equal outside the outer circle, and the heat fluxes in the inner circle are much smaller than those outside the outer circle, namely, the heat fluxes are guided outside the cloaking region.
We derive an analytic expression for the Goos-Hänchen shift experienced by an acoustic wave that is totally reflected at the interface between a negative-refractive-index acoustic medium and a positive-index acoustic medium. Upon obtaining the condition necessary for phonon-trapping in a three-layer heterostructure, we introduce a design for an "acoustic clepsydra" by using a suitable acoustic heterostructure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
