Refraction, beam splitting and dispersion of GHz surface acoustic waves by a phononic crystal [PDF]
We exploit a time-resolved ultrafast optical technique to study the propagation of point-excited surface acoustic waves on a microscopic two-dimensional phononic crystal in the form of a square lattice of holes in a silicon substrate.

Defect-Free Phononic Crystal Waveguides on GaAs
A phononic crystal waveguide is presented that consists of the inverse of a typical structure. Instead of a defect waveguide within an extended phononic crystal, this waveguide consists of a phononic crystal of finite width, and the phononic crystal ...

Imaging phonon eigenstates and elucidating the energy storage characteristics of a honeycomb-lattice phononic crystal cavity [PDF]
We extend gigahertz time-domain imaging to a wideband investigation of the eigenstates of a phononic crystal cavity. Using omnidirectionally excited phonon wave vectors, we implement an ultrafast technique to experimentally probe the two-dimensional ...

Two-Dimensional Phononic Crystal Based Sensor for Characterization of Mixtures and Heterogeneous Liquids [PDF]
We show new approaches to developing acoustic liquid sensors based on phononic crystals. The proposed phononic crystal integrates fluidic elements. A solid block with periodic cylindrical holes contains a defect—a liquid-filled cylindrical cavity. We pay
