contents The confinement of waves in open systems represents a fundamental phenomenon extensively explored across various branches of wave physics. Recently, significant attention has been directed towards bound states in the continuum (BIC), a class of modes that are trapped but do not decay in an otherwise unbounded continuum. Here, we theoretically investigate and experimentally demonstrate the existence of quasi-BIC (QBIC) for ultrasonic waves by leveraging an elastic Fabry-Pérot metasurface resonator. We unveil several intriguing properties of the ultrasound QBIC that are robust to parameter scanning, and we present experimental evidence of a remarkable Q-factor of 350 at around 1 MHz frequency, far exceeding the state-of-the-art using a fully acoustic underwater system. Our findings contribute novel insights into the understanding of BIC for acoustic waves, offering a new paradigm for the design of efficient, ultra-high Q-factor ultrasound devices.
