The topological invariants of a periodic system can be used to define the topological phase of each band and determine the existence of topological interface states within a certain bandgap. Here, we propose a scheme based on the full phase diagrams, and design the topological interface states within any specified bandgaps. As an example, here we propose a kind of one-dimensional phononic crystals. By connecting two semi-infinite structures with different topological phases, the interface states within any specific bandgap or their combinations can be achieved in a rational manner. The existence of interface states in a single bandgap, in all odd bandgaps, in all even bandgaps, or in all bandgaps, are verified in simulations and experiments. The scheme of full phase diagrams we introduce here can be extended to other kinds of periodic systems, such as photonic crystals and designer plasmonic crystals.

Photonic topological states have revolutionized our understanding on the propagation and scattering of light. Recent discovery of higher-order photonic topological insulators opens an emergent horizon for zero-dimensional topological corner states. H
owever, the previous realizations of higher-order photonic topological insulators suffer from either a limited operational frequency range due to the lumped components involved or a bulky structure with a large footprint, which are unfavorable for future integrated photonics. To overcome these limitations, we hereby experimentally demonstrate a planar surface-wave photonic crystal realization of two-dimensional higher-order topological insulators. The surface-wave photonic crystals exhibit a very large bulk bandgap (a bandwidth of 28%) due to multiple Bragg scatterings and host one-dimensional gapped edge states described by massive Dirac equations. The topology of those higher-dimensional photonic bands leads to the emergence of zero-dimensional corner states, which provide a route toward robust cavity modes for scalable, integrated photonic chips and an interface for the control of light-matter interaction.
We theoretically analyze the spectrum of phonons of a one-dimensional quasiperiodic lattice. We simulate the quasicrystal from the classic system of spring-bound atoms with a force constant modulated by the Aubry-Andre model, so that its value is sli
ghtly different in each site of the lattice. From the equations of motion, we obtained the equivalent phonon spectrum of the Hofstadter butterfly, characterizing a multifractal. In this spectrum, we obtained the extended, critical and localized regimes, and we observed that the multifractal characteristic is sensitive to the number of atoms and the $lambda$ parameter of our model. We also verified the presence of border states for phonons, where some modes in the system boundaries present vibrations. Through the measurement of localization of the individual displacements in each site, we verify the presence of a phase transition through the Inverse Participation Rate (IPR) for $lambda= 1.0 $, where the system changes from extended to localized.
It is well known that an interface created by two topologically distinct structures could host nontrivial edge states that are immune to defects. In this letter, we introduce a one-dimensional space-time phononic crystal and study the associated anom
alous topological edge states. A space-decoupled time modulation is assumed. While preserving the key topological feature of the system, such a modulation also duplicates the edge state mode across the spectrum, both inside and outside the band gap. It is shown that, in contrast to conventional topological edge states which are excited by frequencies in the Bragg regime, the time-modulation-induced frequency conversion can be leveraged to access topological edge states at a deep subwavelength scale where the entire phononic crystal size is merely 1/5.1 of the wavelength. This remarkable feature could open a new route for designing miniature devices that are based on topological physics.
Thermal wave crystals based on the dual-phase-lag model are investigated in this paper by both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation to control the non-Fourier heat conduction process. The transfer matrix method is used to calculate the compl
ex dispersion curves. The temperature field is calculated by the finite difference time domain method. The results show that thermal band-gaps exist due to the Bragg-scattering. The key parameters characterizing the band-gaps are analyzed. The thermal wave impedance and mid-gap frequencies are introduced to predict band-gaps theoretically. Our results show that the larger the difference in the thermal wave impedances is, the wider of the thermal band-gaps will be. This study demonstrates a type of the thermal metamaterials which have potential innovative applications such as thermal imagining, thermal diodes and thermal waveguides for energy transmission.
In quantum optomechanics, finding materials and strategies to limit losses has been crucial to the progress of the field. Recently, superfluid 4He was proposed as a promising mechanical element for quantum optomechanics. This quantum fluid shows high
ly desirable properties (e.g. extremely low acoustic loss) for a quantum optomechanical system. In current implementations, superfluid optomechanical systems suffer from external sources of loss, which spoils the quality factor of resonators. In this work, we propose a new implementation, exploiting nanofluidic confinement. Our approach, based on acoustic resonators formed within phononic nanostructures, aims at limiting radiation losses to preserve the intrinsic properties of superfluid 4He. In this work, we estimate the optomechanical system parameters. Using recent theory, we derive the expected quality factors for acoustic resonators in different thermodynamic conditions. We calculate the sources of loss induced by the phononic nanostructures with numerical simulations. Our results indicate the feasibility of the proposed approach in a broad range of parameters, which opens new prospects for more complex geometries.
