Graphene-based phononic crystal lenses: Machine learning-assisted analysis and design.

The advance of artificial intelligence and graphene-based composites brings new vitality into the conventional design of acoustic lenses which suffers from high computation cost and difficulties in achieving precise desired refractive indices. This paper presents an efficient and accurate design methodology for graphene-based gradient-index phononic crystal (GGPC) lenses by combing theoretical formulations and machine learning methods. The GGPC lenses consist of two-dimensional phononic crystals possessing square unit cells with graphene-based composite inclusions.
