A numerical solver for the elastic wave eigenmodes in acoustic waveguides of inhomogeneous cross-section is presented. Operating under the assumptions of linear, isotropic materials, it utilizes a finite-difference method on a staggered grid to solve for the acoustic eigenmodes of the vector-field elastic wave equation. Free, fixed, symmetry, and anti-symmetry boundary conditions are implemented, enabling efficient simulation of acoustic structures with geometrical symmetries and terminations. Perfectly matched layers are also implemented, allowing for the simulation of radiative (leaky) modes. The method is analogous to eigenmode solvers ubiquitously employed in electromagnetics to find waveguide modes, and enables design of acoustic waveguides as well as seamless integration with electromagnetic solvers for optomechanical device design. The accuracy of the solver is demonstrated by calculating eigenfrequencies and mode shapes for common acoustic modes in several simple geometries and comparing the results to analytical solutions where available or to numerical solvers based on more computationally expensive methods.

We design a two-dimensional ultra-thin elastic metasurface consisting of steel cores coated with elliptical rubbers embedded in epoxy matrix, capable of manipulating bulk elastic wave modes for reflected waves. The energy exchanges between the longit udinal and transverse modes are completely controlled by the inclined angle of rubber. One elastic mode can totally convert into another by the ultra-thin elastic metasurface. The conversion mechanism based on the non-degenerate dipolar resonance is a general method and easily extended to three-dimensional or mechanical systems. A mass-spring model is proposed and well describe the conversion properties. We further demonstrate that high conversion rates (more than 95%) can be achieved steadily for one elastic metasurface working on almost all different solid backgrounds. It will bring wide potential applications in elastic devices.
Solid-state quantum acoustodynamic (QAD) systems provide a compact platform for quantum information storage and processing by coupling acoustic phonon sources with superconducting or spin qubits. The multi-mode composite high-overtone bulk acoustic w ave resonator (HBAR) is a popular phonon source well suited for QAD. However, scattering from defects, grain boundaries, and interfacial/surface roughness in the composite transducer severely limits the phonon relaxation time in sputter-deposited devices. Here, we grow an epitaxial-HBAR, consisting of a metallic NbN bottom electrode and a piezoelectric GaN film on a SiC substrate. The acoustic impedance-matched epi-HBAR has a power injection efficiency > 99% from transducer to phonon cavity. The smooth interfaces and low defect density reduce phonon losses, yielding fxQ products and phonon lifetimes up to 1.36 x 10^17 Hz and 500 microseconds respectively. The GaN/NbN/SiC epi-HBAR is an electrically actuated, multi-mode phonon source that can be directly interfaced with NbN-based superconducting qubits or SiC-based spin qubits.
The field of magnonics attracts significant attention due to the possibility of utilizing information coded into the spin-wave phase or amplitude to perform computation operations on the nanoscale. Recently, spin waves were investigated in Yttrium Ir on Garnet (YIG) waveguides with widths ranging down to 50 nm and aspect ratios thickness over width approaching unity. A critical width was found, below which the exchange interaction suppresses the dipolar pinning phenomenon and the system becomes unpinned. Here we continue these investigations and analyse the pinning phenomenon and spin-wave dispersions as a function of temperature, thickness and material of choice. Higher order modes, the influence of a finite wavevector along the waveguide and the impact of the pinning phenomenon on the spin-wave lifetime are discussed as well as the influence of a trapezoidal cross section and edge roughness of the waveguides. The presented results are of particular interest for potential applications in magnonic devices and the incipient field of quantum magnonics at cryogenic temperatures.
This paper introduces a micro-lattice based metamaterial for low frequency wide-band vibration attenuation, that is enabled by engineering the metamaterials building blocks to induce local resonance bandgaps for elastic waves in all directions of pro pagation. The transmission rate through the proposed structure is examined and strong wave attenuation is demonstrated for a remarkably small number of unit cells. Additionally, it is shown that the bandgaps are tailorable via the geometrical parameters and can be leveraged to design a hybrid metamaterial with an extremely wide bandgap. Alongside being thin, lightweight, and capable of attenuating elastic waves in all directions, the proposed material also possesses the second order functionality of exhibiting a negative Poissons ratio and can pave the way for identifying exotic functional materials.
Development of acoustic and optoacoustic on-chip technologies calls for new solutions to guiding, storing and interfacing acoustic and optical waves in integrated silicon-on-insulator (SOI) systems. One of the biggest challenges in this field is to s uppress the radiative dissipation of the propagating acoustic waves, while co-localizing the optical and acoustic fields in the same region of an integrated waveguide. Here we address this problem by introducing Anti-Resonant Reflecting Acoustic Waveguides (ARRAWs) -- mechanical analogues of the Anti-Resonant Reflecting Optical Waveguides (ARROWs). We discuss the principles of anti-resonant guidance and establish guidelines for designing efficient ARRAWs. Finally, we demonstrate examples of the simplest silicon/silica ARRAW platforms that can simultaneously serve as near-IR optical waveguides, and support strong backward Brillouin scattering.
