• openAccess   Emerging topics in nanophononics and elastic, acoustic, and mechanical metamaterials: an overview 

      Krushynska, Anastasiia; Torrent, Daniel De Gruyter (2023-01-27)
      This broad review summarizes recent advances and “hot” research topics in nanophononics and elastic, acoustic, and mechanical metamaterials based on results presented by the authors at the EUROMECH 610 Colloquium held on ...
    • openAccess   Far-field perfect imaging with time-modulated gratings 

      Packo, Pawel; Torrent, Daniel American Physical Society (2022-06-22)
      We study the capabilities of time-modulated diffraction gratings as imaging devices. It is shown that a time-dependent but transversally homogeneous slab can be used to make a perfect image of an object in the far-field, ...
    • openAccess   Observation of two-dimensional acoustic bound states in the continuum 

      Martí-Sabaté, Marc; Li, Junfei; Djafari Rouhani, Bahram; Cummer, Steven; Torrent, Daniel Springer Nature (2024-04-09)
      The design of devices based on acoustic or optical fields requires the fabrication of cavities and structures capable of efficiently trapping these waves. A special type of cavity can be designed to support resonances with ...
    • openAccess   Theory of holey twistsonic media 

      Rosendo López, María; Zhang, Zhiwang; Torrent, Daniel; Christensen, Johan Springer Nature (2022-12-15)
      Rotating two overlapping lattices relative to each other produces the well known moiré interference patterns and has surprisingly led to strongly correlated superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene. This seminal effect ...
