Applying surface piezoelectricity theory and plane wave expansion (PWE) method to the model of Kirchhoff plate, the calculation method of band structure of a piezoelectric phononic crystal (PC) nanoplate with surface effects is proposed and formalized. In order to investigate the bandgap properties of first order in the nanoplate in detail, the corresponding influence rules of thermo-electro-mechanical coupling fields, surface effects and geometric parameters on bandgaps are studied. During the researches, temperature variation, electrical voltage and external axial force are picked as the influencing parameters corresponding to thermo-electro-mechanical coupling fields. Residual surface stress and material intrinsic length are chosen as the influencing parameter related to surface effects. Lattice constant, radius of PZT-4 hole and thickness of nanoplate are picked as the influencing parameters of geometric parameters. All the results are expected to be helpful for the design of micro and nanodevices based on piezoelectric periodic nanoplates.

By applying non-local elasticity theory and plane wave expansion (PWE) method to Timoshenko beam, the calculation method of band structure of a non-local piezoelectric phononic crystal (PC) Timoshenko nanobeam is proposed and formulized. In order to investigate the properties of wave propagating in the nanobeam in detail, bandgaps of first four orders are picked, and the corresponding influence rules of thermo-electro-mechanical coupling fields, non-local effect and geometric parameters on bandgaps are studied. During the research works, temperature variation, external electrical voltage and axial force are chosen as the influencing parameters related to the thermo-electro-mechanical coupling fields. Scale coefficient is chosen as the influencing parameter corresponding to non-local effect. Length ratio between materials PZT-4 and epoxy and height-width ratio are chosen as the influencing parameters of geometric parameters. Moreover, all the band structures and influence rules of Timoshenko nanobeam are compared to those of Euler nanobeam. The results are expected to be of help for the design of micro and nanodevices based on piezoelectric periodic nanobeams.

Abstract The model of a locally resonant (LR) epoxy/PZT-4 phononic crystal (PC) nanobeam with “spring-mass” resonators periodically attached on epoxy is proposed. The corresponding band structures are calculated by coupling Euler beam theory, nonlocal piezoelectricity theory and plane wave expansion (PWE) method. Three complete band gaps with widest total width less than 10GHz can be formed in the proposed nanobeam by comprehensively comparing the band structures of three kinds of LR PC nanobeams with resonators attached or not. Furthermore, influencing rules of the coupling fields between electricity and mechanics, “spring-mass” resonator, nonlocal effect and different geometric parameters on first three band gaps are discussed and summarized. All the investigations are expected to be applied to realize the active control of vibration in the region of ultrahigh frequency.

Abstract The paper proposed a model of a locally resonant (LR) piezoelectric/elastic phononic crystal (PC) nanobeam with periodically attached “spring-mass” resonator and additional spring between upper and lower nanobeams, as well as horizontal spring between mass and foundation. Euler beam theory and nonlocal piezoelectricity theory are coupled and introduced to plane wave expansion (PWE) method to calculate the band structures of such a model with different parameters. Numerical results and further analysis demonstrate that all the bands of double-layer nanobeam can be divided into symmetric and antisymmetric ones. Adding additional and horizontal springs play a role in control the symmetric and antisymmetric bands respectively, which make wider band gaps be opened than corresponding single-layer nanobeam. Moreover, the change of parameters of electro-mechanical coupling fields and resonator can be applied to effectively control the starting frequencies and widths of band gaps, which can provide a theoretical basis for active control of vibration. Effects of geometric and non-dimensional nonlocal parameters on band gaps are also discussed. All the studies are expected to be applied to actively control vibration propagation in the field of nano electro-mechanical system (NEMS).

Piezoelectric Nanobeam

In this paper, we analyze the influence of surface effects including residual surface stress, surface piezoelectric and surface elasticity on the buckling behavior of piezoelectric nanobeams by using the Timoshenko beam theory and surface piezoelectricity model. The critical electric potential for buckling of piezoelectric nanobeams with different boundary condition is obtained analytically. From the results, it is found that the surface piezoelectric reduces the critical electric potential. However, a positive residual surface stress increases the critical electric potential. In addition, the shear deformation reduces the critical electric potential, and the influence of shear deformation become more significant for a stubby piezoelectric nanobeam.

In this paper, a method based on the displacement-traction map is developed to calculate the bandgaps of transverse waves propagating in a 2D phononic crystal composed of nanosized circular holes in a square lattice. The Young-Laplace equation is employed to take into account of the surface effects of the nanosized holes. Detailed calculations are performed for the system with nanosized circular holes in an aluminum host with or without the surface effect. The result shows that all bands descend with the first bandgap becoming wider due to the existence of the surface effects.
