This letter presents the design and experimental demonstration of a gradient metasurface guiding spoof surface acoustic waves (SSAWs) in the manner of a Luneburg lens for sound. By correlating the propagation characteristics of SSAWs with the effective surface acoustic impedance, a straightforward concentric surface structure design is proposed to realize the required refractive index distribution. The results from both simulation and measurement show that grazing incident sound is converted into SSAWs propagating along the metasurface and focusing on the edge of the opposite side of the lens, which may find applications in direction detection and acoustic sensing.
