Surface effect responsible for some size-dependent characteristics can become distinctly important for piezoelectric nanomaterials with inherent large surface-to-volume ratio. In this paper, we investigate the surface effect on the free vibration behavior of a spherically isotropic piezoelectric nanosphere. Instead of directly using the well-known Huang-Yu surface piezoelectricity theory (HY theory), another general framework based on a thin shell layer model is proposed. A novel approach is developed to establish the surface piezoelectricity theory or the effective boundary conditions for piezoelectric nanospheres employing the state-space formalism. Three different sources of surface effect can be identified in the first-order surface piezoelectricity, i.e. the electroelastic effect, the inertia effect, and the thickness effect. It is found that the proposed theory becomes identical to the HY theory for a spherical material boundary if the transverse stress (TS) components are discarded and the electromechanical properties are properly defined. The nonaxisymmetric free vibration of a piezoelectric nanosphere with surface effect is then studied and an exact solution is obtained. In order to investigate the surface effect on the natural frequencies of piezoelectric nanospheres, numerical calculations are finally performed. Our numerical findings demonstrate that the surface effect, especially the thickness effect, may have a particularly significant influence on the free vibration of piezoelectric nanospheres. This work provides a more accurate prediction of the dynamic characteristics of piezoelectric nanospherical devices in Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems (NEMS).

An isogeometric Galerkin approach for analysing the free vibrations of piezoelectric shells is presented. The shell kinematics is specialised to infinitesimal deformations and follow the Kirchhoff-Love hypothesis. Both the geometry and physical field s are discretised using Catmull-Clark subdivision bases. It provides the required C1 continuous discretisation for the Kirchhoff-Love theory. The crystalline structure of piezoelectric materials is described using an anisotropic constitutive relation. Hamiltons variational principle is applied to the dynamic analysis to derive the weak form of the governing equations. The coupled eigenvalue problem is formulated by considering the problem of harmonic vibration in the absence of external load. The formulation for the purely elastic case is verified using a spherical thin shell benchmark. Thereafter, the piezoelectric effect and vibration modes of a transverse isotropic curved plate are analysed and evaluated for the Scordelis-Lo roof problem. Finally, the eigenvalue analysis of a CAD model of a piezoelectric speaker shell structure showcases the ability of the proposed method to handle complex geometries.

Coarsening of bicontinuous microstructures is observed in a variety of systems, such as nanoporous metals and mixtures that have undergone spinodal decomposition. To better understand the morphological evolution of these structures during coarsening, we compare the morphologies resulting from two different coarsening mechanisms, surface and bulk diffusion. We perform phase-field simulations of coarsening via each mechanism in a two-phase mixture at nominal volume fractions of 50%-50% and 36%-64%, and the simulated structures are characterized in terms of topology (genus density), the interfacial shape distribution, structure factor, and autocorrelations of phase and mean curvature. We observe self-similar evolution of morphology and topology and agreement with the expected power laws for dynamic scaling, in which the characteristic length scale increases over time proportionally to $t^{1/4}$ for surface diffusion and $t^{1/3}$ for bulk diffusion. While we observe the expected difference in the coarsening kinetics, we find that differences in self-similar morphology due to coarsening mechanism are relatively small, although typically they are larger at 36% volume fraction than at 50% volume fraction. In particular, we find that bicontinuous structures coarsened via surface diffusion have lower scaled genus densities than structures coarsened via bulk diffusion. We also compare the self-similar morphologies to those in literature and to two model bicontinuous structures, namely, constant-mean-curvature surfaces based on the Schoen G minimal surface and random leveled-wave structures. The average scaled mean curvatures of these model structures agree reasonably with those of the coarsened structures at both 36% and 50%, but we find substantial disagreements in the scaled genus densities and the standard deviations of mean curvature.
Lattice deformations act on the low-energy excitations of Dirac materials as effective axial vector fields. This allows to directly detect quantum anomalies of Dirac materials via the response to axial gauge fields. We investigate the parity anomaly in Dirac nodal line semimetals induced by lattice vibrations, and establish a topological piezoelectric effect; i.e., periodic lattice deformations generate topological Hall currents that are transverse to the deformation field. The currents induced by this piezoelectric effect are dissipationless and their magnitude is completely determined by the length of the nodal ring, leading to a semi-quantized transport coefficient. Our theoretical proposal can be experimentally realized in various nodal line semimetals, such as CaAgP and Ca$_{_3}$P${_2}$.

Surface plasmon polaritons in graphene couple strongly to surface phonons in polar substrates leading to hybridized surface plasmon-phonon polaritons (SPPPs). We demonstrate that a surface acoustic wave (SAW) can be used to launch propagating SPPPs i n graphene/h-BN heterostructures on a piezoelectric substrate like AlN, where the SAW-induced surface modulation acts as a dynamic diffraction grating. The efficiency of the light coupling is greatly enhanced by the introduction of the h-BN film as compared to the bare graphene/AlN system. The h-BN interlayer not only significantly changes the dispersion of the SPPPs but also enhances their lifetime. The strengthening of the SPPPs is shown to be related to both the higher carrier mobility induced in graphene and the coupling with h-BN and AlN surface phonons. In addition to surface phonons, hyperbolic phonons appear in the case of multilayer h-BN films leading to hybridized hyperbolic plasmon-phonon polaritons (HPPPs) that are also mediated by the SAW. These results pave the way for engineering SAW-based graphene/h-BN plasmonic devices and metamaterials covering the mid-IR to THz range.
The surface stress and the contact potential differences of elastically deformed faces of Al, Cu, Au, Ni, and Ti crystals are calculated within the modified stabilized jellium model using the self-consistent Kohn-Sham method. The obtained values of t he surface stress are in agreement with the results of the available first-principal calculations. We find that the work function decreases/increases linearly with elongation/compression of crystals. Our results confirm that the available experimental data for the contact potential difference obtained for the deformed surface by the Kelvin method do not correspond to the change of the work function but to the change of the surface potential. The problem of anisotropy of the work function and ionization potential of finite sample is discussed.
