The modes of vibrations in honeycomb and auxetic structures are studied, with models in which the lattice is represented by a planar network where sites are connected by strings and rigid rods. The auxetic network is obtained modifying a model proposed by Evans et al. in 1991, and used to explain the negative Poissons ratio of auxetic materials. This relevant property means that the materials have a lateral extension, instead to shrink, when they are stretched. For what concerns the acoustic properties of these structures, they absorb noise and vibrations more efficiently than non-auxetic equivalents. The acoustic and optical dispersions obtained in the case of the auxetic model are compared with the dispersions displayed by a conventional honeycomb network. It is possible to see that the phonon dispersions of the auxetic model possess a complete bandgap and that the Goldstone mode group velocity is strongly dependent on the direction of propagation. The presence of a complete bandgap can explain some experimental observations on the sound propagation properties of the auxetic materials.

We present a framework to elucidate the existence of accidental contacts of energy bands, particularly those called Dirac points which are the point contacts with linear energy dispersions in their vicinity. A generalized von-Neumann-Wigner theorem w
e propose here gives the number of constraints on the lattice necessary to have contacts without fine tuning of lattice parameters. By counting this number, one could quest for the candidate of Dirac systems without solving the secular equation. The constraints can be provided by any kinds of symmetry present in the system. The theory also enables the analytical determination of k-point having accidental contact by selectively picking up only the degenerate solution of the secular equation. By using these frameworks, we demonstrate that the Dirac points are feasible in various two-dimensional lattices, e.g. the anisotropic Kagome lattice under inversion symmetry is found to have contacts over the whole lattice parameter space. Spin-dependent cases, such as the spin-density-wave state in LaOFeAs with reflection symmetry, are also dealt with in the present scheme.
Recently phosphorene, monolayer honeycomb structure of black phosphorus, was experimentally manufactured and attracts rapidly growing interests. Here we investigate stability and electronic properties of honeycomb structure of arsenic system based on
first principle calculations. Two types of honeycomb structures, buckled and puckered, are found to be stable. We call them arsenene as in the case of phosphorene. We find that both the buckled and puckered arsenene possess indirect gaps. We show that the band gap of the puckered and buckled arsenene can be tuned by applying strain. The gap closing occurs at 6% strain for puckered arsenene, where the bond angles between the nearest neighbour become nearly equal. An indirect-to-direct gap transition occurs by applying strain. Especially, 1% strain is enough to transform the puckered arsenene into a direct-gap semiconductor. Our results will pave a way for applications to light-emitting diodes and solar cells.
By means of extensive ab initio calculations, a new two-dimensional (2D) atomic material tin selenide monolayer (coined as tinselenidene) is predicted to be a semiconductor with an indirect gap (1.45 eV) and a high hole mobility (of order 10000 cm2V-
1S-1), and will bear an indirect-direct gap transition under a rather low strain (<0.5 GPa). Tinselenidene has a very small Youngs modulus (20-40 GPa) and an ultralow lattice thermal conductivity (<3 Wm-1K-1 at 300 K), making it probably the most flexible and most heat-insulating material in known 2D atomic materials. In addition, tinseleniden has a large negative Poissons ratio of -0.17, thus could act as a 2D auxetic material. With these intriguing properties, tinselenidene could have wide potential applications in thermoelectrics, nanomechanics and optoelectronics.
We study thermal rectifying effect in two dimensional (2D) systems consisting of the Frenkel Kontorva (FK) lattice and the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) lattice. It is found that the rectifying effect is related to the asymmetrical interface thermal resista
nce. The rectifying efficiency is typically about two orders of magnitude which is large enough to be observed in experiment. The dependence of rectifying efficiency on the temperature and temperature gradient is studied. The underlying mechanism is found to be the match and mismatch of the spectra of lattice vibration in two parts.
The paper studies the modes of vibrations of a lattice with rod-like particles, in a continuum model where the sites of the lattice are the connections among strings and rigid rods. In these structures then, translational and rotational degrees of fr
eedom are strongly coupled. We will discuss in particular two-dimensional lattices with auxetic-like behaviour. Auxetics are materials with a negative Poisson elastic parameter, meaning that they have a lateral extension, instead to shrink, when they are stretched. We assume as auxetic-like two-dimensional structures, structures which do not collapse, when stretched in one of the in-plane directions. The presence of rigid rod-like particles in the lattice prevents the shrinking of the membrane. Complete bandgaps between acoustic and optical modes are observed in analogy with the behaviour of crystalline materials.
