Bound acoustic modes in the radiation continuum in isotropic layered systems without periodic structures

We study the existence of guided acoustic modes in layered structures whose phase velocity is higher than that of bulk waves in a solid substrate or an adjacent fluid half space, which belong to the class of bound states in the radiation continuum (BICs). We demonstrate that in contrast to the elect...
