(color online) (a) Spatial phase profile in y axis for two parabolic trajectories [y = 0.5x2 (y ≤ 0) and y = −0.5x2 (y ≥ 0)] (PT-1) and (b) acoustic field distribution of the PT-1 through the AM-1. Scattered dots in panel (a) represent discrete phases of 80 subunits (one dot corresponds to one subunit).
