The introduction of engineered resonance phenomena on surfaces has opened a new
frontier in surface science and technology. Pillared phononic crystals, metamaterials, and …

We study the band structure of elastic waves propagating in a nano-piezoelectric phononic
crystal consisting of a polymeric matrix reinforced by BaTiO3 inclusions in square …

The impact of lattice type, period, porosity, and thickness of two-dimensional silicon
phononic crystals on the reduction of thermal conductance by coherent modification of …

Non-Fourier heat conduction models assume wave-like behavior does exist in the heat
conduction process. Based on this wave-like behavior, thermal conduction controlled in a …

This paper introduces and models a phononic structure based on single-crystal silicon,
aiming to investigate the width of its frequency bandgap and the impact of key parameters …

We investigate the band structure of elastic waves propagating in carbon nanostructure
phononic crystals with square, rectangular, triangular, honeycomb and Kagomé lattices. We …

The thermal conductivity of phononic-like membranes and their analogous nano-wires are
computed with both Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. Using both methods …

The impact of amorphous phases around the holes and at the upper and lower free surfaces
on thermal transport in silicon phononic membranes is studied. By means of molecular …

In this work, the impact of roughness and amorphization on the effective thermal conductivity
of silicon nanofilms and nanowires is studied with atomistic simulations. The discrepancy …

The hollowing of silicon membranes to form a lattice of cylindrical holes, also called
phononic crystal, has been used by several experimental groups willing to fabricate efficient …
