Topological defects (including disclinations and dislocations) which commonly exist in various materials have shown an amazing ability to produce excellent mechanical and physical properties of matters. In this paper, disclinations and dislocations are firstly introduced into the valley-polarized elastic phononic plate. Deformation of the lattice yields the interface expressing as the topologically protected wave guiding, due to the valley-polarized phase transition of phononic crystals (PnCs) across the interface. Then, disclinations are introduced into the Wannier-type elastic phononic plate. The deformation of the lattice yielded by disclinations produces a pentagonal core with the local five-fold symmetry. The topological bound states are well localized around the boundaries of the pentagonal cores with and without the hollow regions. The topological interface state and the topological bound state immunize against the finite sizes and the moderate disturbances of plates, essentially differing from the trivial defect states. The discovery of topological defect states unveils a new horizon in topological mechanics and physics, and it provides a novel platform to implement large-scale elastic devices with robust topological waveguides and resonators.
We present a methodology to perform inverse analysis on reconfigurable topological insulators for flexural waves in plate-like structures. First the unit cell topology of a phononic plate is designed, which offers two-fold degeneracy in the band stru
Defect induced trap states are essential in determining the performance of semiconductor photodetectors. The de-trap time of carriers from a deep trap could be prolonged by several orders of magnitude as compared to shallow trap, resulting in additio
Topologically protected gapless edge states are phases of quantum matter which behave as massless Dirac fermions, immunizing against disorders and continuous perturbations. Recently, a new class of topological insulators (TIs) with topological corner
Topological photonic systems represent a new class of optical materials supporting boundary modes with unique properties, not found in conventional photonics. While the early research on topological photonics has focused on edge and surface modes in
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
