The localization of wave propagation due to random disorder is discussed by introducing the concept of the localization factor that is calculated by the plane-wave-based transfer-matrix method. By treating the quasi-periodicity as the deviation from the periodicity in a special way, two kinds of quasi phononic crystal that has quasi-periodicity （Fibonacci sequence） in one direction and translational symmetry in the other direction are considered and the band structures are characterized by using localization factors. The results show that the localization factor is an effective parameter in characterizing the band gaps of two-dimensional perfect, randomly disordered and quasi-periodic phononic crystals. Band structures of the phononic crystals can be tuned by different random disorder or changing quasi-periodic parameters. The quasi phononic crystals exhibit more band gaps with narrower width than the ordered and randomly disordered systems.展开更多

The supercell technique is applied. By expanding the displacement field and the material constants （mass density and elastic stiffness） in periodic wavelets, the explicit formulations of an eigenvalue problem for the plane harmonic bulk waves in such a phononic structure are derived. The point and line defect states in solid-liquid and solid-solid systems are calculated. Comparisons of the present results with those measured experimentally or those from the plane wave expansion method show that the present method can yield accurate results with faster convergence and less computing time.展开更多

The structure is composed of periodic spindle-shaped plumbum inclusions in a rubber matrix which forms a square lattice. The dispersion relation, transmission spectrum and displacement field are studied using the finite element method in conjunction with the Bloch theorem. Numerical results show that the present PC structure can achieve a large complete bandgap in a relatively low frequency range compared with two inclusions of different materials, which is useful in low-frequency noise and vibration control and can be designed as a low frequency acoustic filter and waveguides. Moreover, the transmission spectrum and effective mass are evaluated to validate the obtained band structure. It is interesting to see that within the band gap the effective mass becomes negative, resulting in an imaginary wave speed and wave exponential attenuation. Finally, sensitivity analysis of the effect of geometrical parameters of the presented PC structure on the lowest bandgap is performed to investigate the variations of the bandgap width and frequency.展开更多

In order to find the eigenvalues of the problem, besides the sources used to expand the wave field, an extra monopole source is introduced which acts as the external excitation. By varying the frequency of the excitation, the eigenvalues can be localized as the extreme points of an appropriately chosen function. By sweeping the frequency range of interest and sweeping the boundary of the irreducible first Brillouin zone, the band structure is obtained. Some numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed method.展开更多

The interface-guided modes of the Lamb wave can be obtained by the lateral lattice slipping or by the interface longitudinal gliding. Significantly, it is observed that the condition to generate the interface-guided modes of the Lamb wave is more demanding than that of the studied fluid-fluid system. The interface-guided modes are strongly affected not only by the relative movement of the two semi-infinite PCs but also by the thickness of the PC plate.展开更多

The generalized eigenvalue equation is obtained by the relation of the mechanic and electric fields as well as the Bloch-Floquet theorem. The band structures of both the in-plane and anti-plane modes are calculated for a rectangular lattice by the planewave expansion method. The effects of the lattice constant ratio and the piezoelectricity with different filling fractions are analyzed. The results show that the largest gap width is not always obtained for a square lattice. In some situations, a rectangular lattice may generate larger gaps. The band gap characteristics are influenced obviously by the piezoelectricity with the larger lattice constant ratios and the filling fractions.展开更多

For different cases of disorder, the transmission coefficients are calculated. The influences of disorders on band gaps are investigated. The results show that the disorder in the piezoelectric phononic crystals has more significant influences on the band gap in the low frequency regions than in the high frequency ones. The relation between the width of band gap and the direction of position disorder is also discussed. When the position disorder is along the direction perpendicular to the wave transmission, the piezoelectric phononic crystals have wider band gaps at low frequency regions than the case of position disorder being along the wave transmission direction. It can also be found that the effect of. size disorder on band gaps is analogous to that of location disorder. When the perturbation coefficient is big, it has more pronounced effects on the pass bands in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with both size and location disorders than in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with single disorder. In higher frequency regions the piezoelectric effect reduces the transmission coefficients. But for larger disorder degree, the effects of the piezoelectricity will be reduced.展开更多

In this paper, the propagation of elastic waves in a two-dirnensional hybrid triangular lattice structure consisting of stainless steel cylinders in air is investigated theoretically. The band structure is calculated with the plane wave expansion （PWE） method. The hybrid triangular Bravais lattice is formed by two kinds of triangular lattices. Different from ordinary triangular lattices, the band gap opens at low frequency （between the first and the second bands） regime because of lifting the bands degeneracy at high symmetry points of the Brillouin zone. The location and width of the band gaps can be tuned by the position of the additional rods.展开更多

Compared with the work of C. Goffaux and J. Sánchez-Dehesa （Phys. Rev. B 67 14 4301（2003））, it is shown that there exists an error of about 50% in their calculated results of the band structure, and one band is missing in their results. Moreover, the in-plane modes shown in their paper are improper, which results in the wrong conclusion on the mechanism of the ternary locally resonant phononic crystals. Based on the lumped-mass method and better description of the vibration modes according to the band gaps, the locally resonant mechanism in forming the subfrequency gaps is thoroughly analysed. The rule used to judge whether a resonant mode in the phononic crystals can result in a corresponding subfrequency gap is also verified in this ternary case.展开更多

As one of the most favorable topologies, two- dimensional soft structures with circular holes have been extensively studied. Based on the contrarian thinking, this paper starts from the two-dimensional soft structures with criss-crossed elliptical holes, which is close to the post-buckling configuration of soft structures with circular holes, and then proposes to tune the band gaps through elongating or stretching rather than compressing. Influences of the loading magnitude and loading pattern （i.e., uniaxial and biaxial elongations） on the band gaps are studied via the nonlinear finite element simulations. Effects of the geometric parameters （the major-to-minor half-axis ratio and the porosity of the structure） are also discussed. It is shown that, compared with the traditional circular hole case, the band gaps of the unloaded structure with criss-crossed elliptical holes are much richer, and they could be reversely and continuously tuned by tensile loadings. In particular, the deformation is very robust and is insensitive to small geometric imperfections, which is always necessary for triggering the post-buckling deformations. The present work provides a useful reference to the manipula- tion of elastic waves in periodic structures as well as the design of soft phononic crystals/acoustic devices.展开更多

The design concept is to introduce some auxiliary structures into conventional pe- riodic lattice materials. Elastic wave propagation in this kind of modified two-dimensional lattice materials is studied us- ing a combination of Bloch＇s theorem with finite element method. The calculated frequency band structures of illus- trative modified square lattice materials reveal the existence of frequency band gaps in the low frequency region due to the introduction of the auxiliary structures. The mechanism underlying the occurrence of these frequency band gaps is thoroughly discussed and natural resonances of the auxiliary structures are validated to be the origin. The effect of geo- metric parameters of the auxiliary structures on the width of the local resonance phononic band gaps is explored. Finally, a conceptual broadband vibration-insulating structure based on the modified lattice materials is designed and its capabil- ity is demonstrated. The present work is anticipated to be useful in designing structures which can insulate mechanical vibrations within desired frequency ranges.展开更多

The structure is composed of periodic spindle-shaped plumbum inclusions in a rubber matrix which forms a square lattice. The dispersion relation, transmission spectrum and displacement field are studied using the finite element method in conjunction with the Bloch theorem. Numerical results show that the present PC structure can achieve a large complete bandgap in a relatively low frequency range compared with two inclusions of different materials, which is useful in low-frequency noise and vibration control and can be designed as a low frequency acoustic filter and waveguides. Moreover, the transmission spectrum and effective mass are evaluated to validate the obtained band structure. It is interesting to see that within the band gap the effective mass becomes negative, resulting in an imaginary wave speed and wave exponential attenuation. Finally, sensitivity analysis of the effect of geometrical parameters of the presented PC structure on the lowest bandgap is performed to investigate the variations of the bandgap width and frequency.

文摘Strong long-wavelength laser pulses enable direct manipulation of atomic lattices for engineering novel quantum states in complex materials.Nonlinear coupling between two infrared-active phonon modes(TO_(1) and TO_(2)),induced by intense terahertz light fields,significantly enhances the amplitude of the TO_(1) mode and facilitates ultrafast control of transient structural distortions.This light-induced distortion reduces the lattice thermal conductivity from 8.1 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1)to 3.0 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1).The reduction originates from the nonlinear coupling,which enhances anharmonic interactions in the lattice potential energy and substantially shortens the phonon lifetime(τ).This work demonstrates a strategy applicable to other perovskite materials and provides a framework for investigating light-induced electrical,optical,and thermodynamic phase transitions.

The generalized eigenvalue equation is obtained by the relation of the mechanic and electric fields as well as the Bloch-Floquet theorem. The band structures of both the in-plane and anti-plane modes are calculated for a rectangular lattice by the planewave expansion method. The effects of the lattice constant ratio and the piezoelectricity with different filling fractions are analyzed. The results show that the largest gap width is not always obtained for a square lattice. In some situations, a rectangular lattice may generate larger gaps. The band gap characteristics are influenced obviously by the piezoelectricity with the larger lattice constant ratios and the filling fractions.

The results show that the disorder in the piezoelectric phononic crystals has more significant influences on the band gap in the low frequency regions than in the high frequency ones. The relation between the width of band gap and the direction of position disorder is also discussed. When the position disorder is along the direction perpendicular to the wave transmission, the piezoelectric phononic crystals have wider band gaps at low frequency regions than the case of position disorder being along the wave transmission direction. It can also be found that the effect of. size disorder on band gaps is analogous to that of location disorder. When the perturbation coefficient is big, it has more pronounced effects on the pass bands in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with both size and location disorders than in the piezoelectric phononic crystals with single disorder. In higher frequency regions the piezoelectric effect reduces the transmission coefficients. But for larger disorder degree, the effects of the piezoelectricity will be reduced.

文摘Absolute phononic band gaps can be substantially improved in two-dimensional lattices by using a symmetry reduction approach. In this paper, the propagation of elastic waves in a two-dirnensional hybrid triangular lattice structure consisting of stainless steel cylinders in air is investigated theoretically. The band structure is calculated with the plane wave expansion （PWE） method. The hybrid triangular Bravais lattice is formed by two kinds of triangular lattices. Different from ordinary triangular lattices, the band gap opens at low frequency （between the first and the second bands） regime because of lifting the bands degeneracy at high symmetry points of the Brillouin zone. The location and width of the band gaps can be tuned by the position of the additional rods.

文摘The low-frequency band gap and the corresponding vibration modes in two-dimensional ternary locally resonant phononic crystals are restudied successfully with the lumped-mass method. Compared with the work of C. Goffaux and J. Sánchez-Dehesa （Phys. Rev. B 67 14 4301（2003））, it is shown that there exists an error of about 50% in their calculated results of the band structure, and one band is missing in their results. Moreover, the in-plane modes shown in their paper are improper, which results in the wrong conclusion on the mechanism of the ternary locally resonant phononic crystals. Based on the lumped-mass method and better description of the vibration modes according to the band gaps, the locally resonant mechanism in forming the subfrequency gaps is thoroughly analysed. The rule used to judge whether a resonant mode in the phononic crystals can result in a corresponding subfrequency gap is also verified in this ternary case.

文摘Tuning band gaps in soft materials by post-buckling deformation is becoming an appealing means to manipulate elastic waves. As one of the most favorable topologies, two- dimensional soft structures with circular holes have been extensively studied. Based on the contrarian thinking, this paper starts from the two-dimensional soft structures with criss-crossed elliptical holes, which is close to the post-buckling configuration of soft structures with circular holes, and then proposes to tune the band gaps through elongating or stretching rather than compressing. Influences of the loading magnitude and loading pattern （i.e., uniaxial and biaxial elongations） on the band gaps are studied via the nonlinear finite element simulations. Effects of the geometric parameters （the major-to-minor half-axis ratio and the porosity of the structure） are also discussed. It is shown that, compared with the traditional circular hole case, the band gaps of the unloaded structure with criss-crossed elliptical holes are much richer, and they could be reversely and continuously tuned by tensile loadings. In particular, the deformation is very robust and is insensitive to small geometric imperfections, which is always necessary for triggering the post-buckling deformations. The present work provides a useful reference to the manipula- tion of elastic waves in periodic structures as well as the design of soft phononic crystals/acoustic devices.

文摘Phonon coherence can reflect electron‒phonon coupling information and has been proven to modulate electronic states and charge transport.The manipulation of phonon coherence through spacer cation engineering in organic‒inorganic hybrid perovskites(OIHPs)has been extensively demonstrated;however,the underlying structural origin remains elusive at the molecular level.Herein,we present molecular structure and temperature-dependent coherent phonon studies via a combination of sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy(SFG-VS)and transient absorption spectroscopy(TAS).The conformational order of spacer cations dictates the coherent phonon oscillations in 2D OIHPs.Our study further analyzes the static order and dynamic disorder in 2D perovskites.This work provides molecular-level insights into the role of spacer cations in tuning structural order and may provide valuable guidance for advancing emergent optoelecltronics development.

文摘In this paper, modified two-dimensional peri- odic lattice materials with local resonance phononic band gaps are designed and investigated. The design concept is to introduce some auxiliary structures into conventional pe- riodic lattice materials. Elastic wave propagation in this kind of modified two-dimensional lattice materials is studied us- ing a combination of Bloch＇s theorem with finite element method. The calculated frequency band structures of illus- trative modified square lattice materials reveal the existence of frequency band gaps in the low frequency region due to the introduction of the auxiliary structures. The mechanism underlying the occurrence of these frequency band gaps is thoroughly discussed and natural resonances of the auxiliary structures are validated to be the origin. The effect of geo- metric parameters of the auxiliary structures on the width of the local resonance phononic band gaps is explored. Finally, a conceptual broadband vibration-insulating structure based on the modified lattice materials is designed and its capabil- ity is demonstrated. The present work is anticipated to be useful in designing structures which can insulate mechanical vibrations within desired frequency ranges.

文摘A boundary element method(BEM) is presented to compute the transmission spectra of two-dimensional(2-D) phononic crystals of a square lattice which are finite along the x-direction and infinite along the y-direction.The cross sections of the scatterers may be circular or square.For a periodic cell,the boundary integral equations of the matrix and the scatterers are formulated.Substituting the periodic boundary conditions and the interface continuity conditions,a linear equation set is formed,from which the elastic wave transmission can be obtained.From the transmission spectra,the band gaps can be identified,which are compared with the band structures of the corresponding infinite systems.It is shown that generally the transmission spectra completely correspond to the band structures.In addition,the accuracy and the efficiency of the boundary element method are analyzed and discussed.
