Thermal properties of one-dimensional piezoelectric phononic crystal

By using the transfer matrix method, we theoretically studied the propagation of a longitudinal acoustic wave in a one-dimensional phononic crystal (PnC) that contains a piezoelectric material as a defect layer. A pass band can be generated and controlled in the middle of the band gap. The pass band position is tuned by applying an external electric field. The position of the pass band inside the band gap is tuned by the changing of temperature. We introduce a comparison between temperature effects on two piezoelectric materials, PZT-5H and 0.7 PMN-0.3PT inside a PnC structure. Moreover, the pass band is shifted towards high or low frequencies by temperature decrement or increment, respectively. The simulated results provide a valuable guidance for PnC applications such as acoustic switch and temperature sensor.

The Brillouin zones and band gaps of a two-dimensional phononic crystal with parallelogram lattice structure

We present a detailed theoretical study on the acoustic band structure of two-dimensional(2D)phononic crystal.The 2D phononic crystal with parallelogram lattice structure is considered to be formed by rigid solid rods embedded in air.For the circular rods,some of the extrema of the acoustic bands appear in the usual high-symmetry points and,in contrast,we find that some of them are located in other specific lines.For the case of elliptic rods,our results indicate that it is necessary to study the whole first Brillouin zone to obtain rightly the band structure and corresponding band gaps.Furthermore,we evaluate the first and second band gaps using the plane wave expansion method and find that these gaps can be tuned by adjusting the side lengths ratio R,inclined angleθand filling fraction F of the parallelogram lattice with circular rods.The results show that the largest value of the first band gap appears atθ=90°and F=0.7854.In contrast,the largest value of the second band gap is atθ=60°and F=0.9068.Our results indicate that the improvement of matching degree between scatterers and lattice pattern,rather than the reduction of structural symmetry,is mainly responsible for the enhancement of the band gaps in the 2D phononic crystal.

一维亥姆霍兹共振腔声子晶体中缺陷模式的实验研究

基于亥姆霍兹共振腔单元设计并制作了一种一维局域共振型声子晶体, 针对结构中存在点缺陷的情况, 进行了实验研究. 实验结果表明, 由于点缺陷的存在, 局域共振型声禁带中出现了缺陷模式, 并且在缺陷单元周围引起了能量的局域现象, 与理论结果符合较好. 缺陷单元从两个不同的方向趋近于完美单元时, 缺陷模式分别按照不同的规律变化, 但是越靠近禁带边缘, 所局域的能量就越多. 另外, 当缺陷单元共振频率小于完美单元共振频率时, 局域能量主要集中在声波导内; 反之, 局域能量则主要集中在共振腔内. 本研究对设计新型低频声滤波装置及高声强集中装置具有一定意义. 关键词： 亥姆霍兹共振腔 声子晶体 缺陷模式 能量局域化

Investigation the effect of lattice angle on the band gap width in 3D phononic crystals with rhombohedral(I) lattice

In this paper, the propagation of acoustic waves in the phononic crystal of 3D with rhombohedral(I) lattice is studied theoretically. The crystal composite constituted of nickel spheres embedded in epoxy. The calculations of the band structure and density of states are performed with the plane wave expansion method in the irreducible part of Brillouin zone. In the present work, we have investigated the effect of lattice angle on the band structure and width of the band gap rhombohedral(I) lattice in the irreducible part of the first Brillouin zone and its planes separately. The results show that more than one complete band gape are formed in the four planes of the irreducible part. The most complete band gaps are formed in the (111) plane and the widest complete band gap in (443) with an angle greater than 80 \(^{\circ }\) . So, if the sound passes through the (111) and (443) planes for the lattice angle close to 90 \(^{\circ }\) , the crystal phononic displays the excellent insulation behavior. Moreover, in the other planes, the lattice angle does not affect on the width and the number of band gaps. Also, for the filling fraction 5 %, the widest complete band gap is formed. These results are consistent with the effect of symmetry on the band gap width, because the (111) plane has the most symmetry.

局域共振复合单元声子晶体结构的低频带隙特性研究

本文提出了一种新型局域共振复合单元声子晶体结构, 并结合有限元方法对结构的带隙机理及低频共振带隙特性进行了分析和研究. 共振带隙产生的频率位置由所对应的局域共振模态的固有频率决定, 并且带隙宽度与局域共振模态的品质因子及其与基体之间的耦合作用强度有关. 采用局域共振复合单元结构可以实现声子晶体的多重共振, 在低频范围能打开多条共振带隙, 但受到共振单元排列方式的的影响. 由于纵向和横向局域共振模态的简并, 复合单元结构能在200 Hz以下的低频范围打开超过60%宽度的共振带隙, 最低带隙频率低至18 Hz. 这为声子晶体结构获得低频、超低频带隙提供了一种有效的方法. 关键词： 局域共振 低频带隙 复合单元 声子晶体     

二维正方排列圆柱状亥姆赫兹共振腔阵列局域共振声带隙的研究

通过对二维正方排列圆柱状亥姆赫兹共振腔阵列声性质的研究,指出局域共振型声子晶体中存在两类耦合作用, 即共振单元与基体的弱耦合作用及共振单元间的耦合作用.其中前一种耦合作用可以通过改变共振单元的品质因子而改变, 逐渐减小这种耦合作用可以实现从局域共振到布拉格共振的连续转变;后一种耦合是通过共振单元周围的近场耦合实现的, 通过减小共振单元的间距可以增大其耦合强度,因而增大带隙宽度,但带隙中波的衰减深度却是随这种耦合强度的增大而减小的.     

Simultaneous occurrence of structure-directed and particle-resonance-induced phononic gaps in colloidal films

We report on the observation of two hypersonic phononic gaps of different nature in three-dimensional colloidal films of nanospheres using Brillouin light scattering. One is a Bragg gap occurring at the edge of the first Brillouin zone along a high-symmetry crystal direction. The other is a hybridization gap in crystalline and amorphous films, originating from the interaction of the band of quadrupole particle eigenmodes with the acoustic effective-medium band, and its frequency position compares well with the computed lowest eigenfrequency. Structural disorder eliminates the Bragg gap, while the hybridization gap is robust.     

Control analysis of the tunable phononic crystal with electrorheological material

The elastic band structure of a two-dimensional phononic crystal (PC) with electrorheological (ER) material is investigated and the plane-wave-expansion (PWE) method is adopted to solve the problem in this paper. The ER material is used to act as a tunable elastic composite inserts and its material parameter can be changed by the applied electric fields. Variations of the band gaps for the phononic composite system are also calculated with various electric fields and it is found to have a significant effect on the band gaps of the phononic system with ER material inserts. The band gaps of the smart system can be controlled and the acoustic characteristics of the system are also changed by applied different electric fields.     

Three channel GHz-ranged demultiplexer in solid-solid phononic crystals

We present the design procedure for the elastic GHz-ranged demultiplexer based on a solid-solid phononic crystal platform. It consists of a T-shaped waveguide with three arms. The PnC platform consists of a square array of infinitely long rods of Tungsten embedded in PMMA background. In order to have a wide band gap, it is essential that constituent materials have large contrast in physical properties. These materials have large contrast in their physical properties and it gives us the possibility of having complete band gaps with low filling fractions. To calculate the band diagram and transmission field map, the finite element method (FEM) has been employed. The main waveguides are made by removing one row or one column of rods. For each arm, the radius of rods is modified to have three different defects. Therefore, the designed demultiplexer can separate three frequencies in the range of GHz. To the best of our knowledge, it is for the first time.

Velocity of a SAW propagating in a 2D phononic crystal

We have studied the propagation of a surface acoustic waves (SAW), in a structure constituted by a 2D phononic film (a few micrometers thick and having lattice constants of a few hundreds of micrometers in the two directions of the propagation plane) deposited onto a homogeneous semi-infinite substrate. First, we have calculated the dispersion relations of the acoustic modes by using a plane waves expansion method. We found that the surface branch exhibits both the folding effect and a band gap for the propagation along some particular directions. This is a very interesting result which demonstrates that the effects related to the existence of the band gap (sound velocity dispersion, diffraction, refraction, ultrasound tunneling, etc.) can all appear, even if the thickness of the phononic film is much less than the penetration depth of the SAW. Then, we used an all-optical technique to monitor the spectral content of the SAW propagating along the GammaX direction in the reduced Brillouin zone. We show that a wave with frequency in the stop band, is destructively diffracted after it propagates through less than ten periods. Finally, we report on measurements of the Rayleigh wave phase velocity and we show that the transit time is independent of the distance traveled inside the phononic crystal, suggesting that tunneling trough the sample is involved.

Interplay of local resonances and Bragg band gaps in acoustic waveguides with periodic detuned resonators

This letter is concerned with acoustic wave propagation and transmission in acoustic waveguides with periodically grafted detuned Helmholtz resonators. The interplay of local resonances and Bragg band gaps in such periodic systems is examined. It is shown that, when the resonant frequencies of the resonators are tuned close to a Bragg band gap, the behavior of the Bragg band gap can be affected dramatically. Particularly, by introducing appropriately tuned resonators, the bandwidth of a Bragg band gap can be reduced to zero, leading to a very narrow pass band with great wave attenuation performance near both band edges. The band formation mechanisms of such periodic waveguides are further examined, providing explicit formulae to locate the band edge frequencies of all the band gaps, as well as the conditions to achieve very narrow pass bands in such periodic waveguides.
