Wave demultiplexers transporting desired wavelengths towards proper directions or ports are attracting numerous interests and applications in both physical and engineering areas. In acoustics, there is still a lack of compact and simple designs to achieve demultiplexers in three-port systems. In this work, we propose such a design using Helmholtz resonators where the frequency selection is based on the phenomenon of acoustically induced transparency (AIT). First, a modified transfer matrix method is derived to analytically describe and analyze the AIT effect with Helmholtz resonators. Then, the good performances of wave routing in these designs are further demonstrated by both simulation and experiment. These AIT based demultiplexers are subwavelength and simple in their designs. Therefore, they are promising for various potential applications such as signal processing, information communication and sensing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
