ABSTRACT
In this work, we propose a spiral metasurface for multi-order sound absorption in the low-frequency range (<1000 Hz). By dividing the long channel of the spiral metasurface into a series of tunable sub-cavities and employing recessed necks, the metasurface can quasi-perfectly (>0.95 in experiments) absorb airborne sound at multiple low-frequency orders without being limited by the number of equivalent cavities. Owing to the superior impedance manipulation provided by the spiral metasurface, each absorption order can be tuned flexibly with a constant external shape. By suitably modulating the sub-cavities and the recessed necks, we obtained multi-order high-absorption metasurfaces with dual-chamber, tri-chamber, and four-chamber designs. The ratio of the lowest resonant wavelength to the thickness is as high as 78. The samples, which are fabricated by three-dimensional printing technology, were measured to verify the theoretical results. We also investigate the relationship between the geometric parameters of the recessed necks and the sound absorption performance, which facilitates the more feasibly designed multi-order metasurfaces. The concept can be further applied to broadband absorption with ultra-thin thickness and has potential applications for noise reduction.
