Enhanced sensing and conversion of ultrasonic Rayleigh waves by elastic metasurfaces (2017)
Journal Article
Colombi, A., Ageeva, V., Smith, R. J., Clare, A. T., Patel, R., Clark, M., …Craster, R. V. (2017). Enhanced sensing and conversion of ultrasonic Rayleigh waves by elastic metasurfaces. Scientific Reports, 7(1), Article 6750. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-07151-6

Recent years have heralded the introduction of metasurfaces that advantageously combine the vision of sub-wavelength wave manipulation, with the design, fabrication and size advantages associated with surface excitation. An important topic within met... Read More about Enhanced sensing and conversion of ultrasonic Rayleigh waves by elastic metasurfaces.

Orientation imaging of macro-sized polysilicon grains on wafers using spatially resolved acoustic spectroscopy (2017)
Journal Article
Patel, R., Li, W., Smith, R. J., Sharples, S. D., & Clark, M. (2017). Orientation imaging of macro-sized polysilicon grains on wafers using spatially resolved acoustic spectroscopy. Scripta Materialia, 140, 67-70. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scriptamat.2017.07.003

Due to its economical production process polysilicon, or multicrystalline silicon, is widely used to produce solar cell wafers. However, the conversion efficiencies are often lower than equivalent monocrystalline or thin film cells, with the structur...
