Topological phononic crystals (PCs) are periodic artificial structures which can support nontrivial acoustic topological bands, and their topological properties are linked to the existence of topological edge modes. Most previous studies focused on the topological edge modes in Bragg gaps which are induced by lattice scatterings. While local resonant gaps would be of great use in subwavelength control of acoustic waves, whether it is possible to achieve topological interface states in local resonant gaps is a question. In this article, we study the topological bands near local resonant gaps in a time-reversal symmetric acoustic systems and elaborate the evolution of band structure using a spring-mass model. Our acoustic structure can produce three band gaps in subwavelength region: one originates from local resonance of unit cell and the other two stem from band folding. It is found that the topological interface states can only exist in the band folding induced band gaps but never appear in the local resonant band gap. The numerical simulation perfectly agrees with theoretical results. Our study provides an approach of localizing the subwavelength acoustic wave.

The interplay between real-space topological lattice defects and the reciprocal-space topology of energy bands can give rise to novel phenomena, such as one-dimensional topological modes bound to screw dislocations in three-dimensional topological in sulators. We obtain direct experimental observations of dislocation-induced helical modes in an acoustic analog of a weak three-dimensional topological insulator. The spatial distribution of the helical modes is found through spin-resolved field mapping, and verified numerically by tight-binding and finite-element calculations. These one-dimensional helical channels can serve as robust waveguides in three-dimensional media. Our experiment paves the way to studying novel physical modes and functionalities enabled by topological lattice defects in three-dimensional classical topological materials.
Dislocations are ubiquitous in three-dimensional solid-state materials. The interplay of such real space topology with the emergent band topology defined in reciprocal space gives rise to gapless helical modes bound to the line defects. This is known as bulk-dislocation correspondence, in contrast to the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence featuring topological states at boundaries. However, to date rare compelling experimental evidences are presented for this intriguing topological observable, owing to the presence of various challenges in solid-state systems. Here, using a three-dimensional acoustic topological insulator with precisely controllable dislocations, we report an unambiguous experimental evidence for the long-desired bulk-dislocation correspondence, through directly measuring the gapless dispersion of the one-dimensional topological dislocation modes. Remarkably, as revealed in our further experiments, the pseudospin-locked dislocation modes can be unidirectionally guided in an arbitrarily-shaped dislocation path. The peculiar topological dislocation transport, expected in a variety of classical wave systems, can provide unprecedented controllability over wave propagations.
The recent discovery of higher-order topological insulators (TIs) has opened new possibilities in the search for novel topological materials and metamaterials. Second-order TIs have been implemented in two-dimensional (2D) systems exhibiting topologi cal corner states, as well as three-dimensional (3D) systems having one-dimensional (1D) topological hinge states. Third-order TIs, which have topological states three dimensions lower than the bulk (which must thus be 3D or higher), have not yet been reported. Here, we describe the realization of a third-order TI in an anisotropic diamond-lattice acoustic metamaterial. The bulk acoustic bandstructure has nontrivial topology characterized by quantized Wannier centers. By direct acoustic measurement, we observe corner states at two corners of a rhombohedron-like structure, as predicted by the quantized Wannier centers. This work extends topological corner states from 2D to 3D, and may find applications in novel acoustic devices.
We have theoretically studied how resonant spin wave modes in an elliptical nanomagnet are affected by fabrication defects, such as small local thickness variations. Our results indicate that defects of this nature, which can easily result from the f abrication process, or are sometimes deliberately introduced during the fabrication process, will significantly alter the frequencies, magnetic field dependence of the frequencies, and the power and phase profiles of the resonant spin wave modes. They can also spawn new resonant modes and quench existing ones. All this has important ramifications for multi-device circuits based on spin waves, such as phase locked oscillators for neuromorphic computing, where the device-to-device variability caused by defects can be inhibitory.
We study the two-dimensional extension of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model in its higher order topological insulator phase, which is known to host corner states. Using the separability of the model into a product of one-dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chains, we analytically describe the eigen-modes, and specifically the zero-energy level, which includes states localized in corners. We then consider networks with disordered hopping coefficients that preserve the chiral (sublattice) symmetry of the model. We show that the corner mode and its localization properties are robust against disorder if the hopping coefficients have a vanishing flux on appropriately defined super plaquettes. We then show how this model with disorder can be realised using an acoustic network of air channels, and confirm the presence and robustness of corner modes.
