ABSTRACT
Acoustic beam shaping with high degrees of freedom is critical for applications such as ultrasound imaging, acoustic manipulation, and stimulation. However, the ability to fully control the acoustic pressure profile over its propagation path has not yet been achieved. Here, we demonstrate an acoustic diffraction-resistant adaptive profile technology (ADAPT) that can generate a propagation-invariant beam with an arbitrarily desired profile. By leveraging wave number modulation and beam multiplexing, we develop a general framework for creating a highly flexible acoustic beam with a linear array ultrasonic transducer. The designed acoustic beam can also maintain the beam profile in lossy material by compensating for attenuation. We show that shear wave elasticity imaging is an important modality that can benefit from ADAPT for evaluating tissue mechanical properties. Together, ADAPT overcomes the existing limitation of acoustic beam shaping and can be applied to various fields, such as medicine, biology, and material science.
