Nonlinear effects in locally resonant nanostrip phononic metasurface at GHz frequencies by Feng Gao (3548)

“…Finite element analysis reveals that the device operates in a vertically polarized (compression) mode with substantial acoustic energy confined in the nanostrips, leading to a local resonance at low acoustic velocity. Due to the nonlinearity, the resonance frequency of the device decreases with the increase in stimulation power. …”
