Abstract
Optical and acoustic metasurfaces have been extensively studied for wavefront shaping, including lensing, beam steering, and holography. This work aims to explore a new field of acoustoplasmonic metasurfaces that utilize the photoacoustic effect in gold nanoparticles to generate high-frequency acoustic waves via optical excitation. We leverage the extreme polarization-dependence of absorption efficiency in nanoellipsoids to introduce acoustic wavefront tunability, which opens the door to applications in super-resolution acoustic imaging.
