The last decades have witnessed a rich activity towards the integration of acoustic technologies within electro-optical circuits in high-frequency hybrid devices. The main role in this trend has been played by surface acoustic waves (SAW), easily integrable in several material platforms via piezoelectricity. Given their high frequency and quality factors, simple SAW delay-line resonators have found application as sensors, filters, and oscillators for telecommunication applications. More complex manipulation of acoustic waves would boost SAW-based technologies, becoming a key for the transition to 6G; complete wave manipulation and control in the GHz range would offer the most promise for integration with modern communication technologies.
In this context, we illustrate the use of light-interferometry and atomic force microscopy based scanning probe techniques for a fine investigation of GHz acoustic fields in mechanical metasurfaces. Focusing on the role of symmetries in wave scattering, we show complex wave manipulation, leading to asymmetric negative refraction and anisotropic transmission of mechanical waves.
