摘要:

近年来,人工晶体中经典波的拓扑物理已成为一个新兴的研究领域。在这封信中,我们提出了一个独特的双层设计的声波晶体,是由两层耦合的六边形阵列的三角形散射体。在附加层自由度的辅助下,通过简单地旋转两层中的散射体来实现丰富的拓扑相图。在统一的理论框架下,解析地区分了两种山谷投影型拓扑隔声体,层混合和层极化拓扑谷霍尔相,分别。我们的数值计算和实验观察证实了该理论的非平凡边缘状态,沿界面传播分离不同的拓扑相位。通过层信息丰富的有趣的声学边缘状态,可以预期各种应用,例如集成器件中的声音通信。

英文摘要:

Recently, the topological physics in artificial crystals for classical waves has become an emerging research area. In this Letter, we propose a unique bilayer design of sonic crystals that are constructed by two layers of coupled hexagonal array of triangular scatterers. Assisted by the additional layer degree of freedom, a rich topological phase diagram is achieved by simply rotating scatterers in both layers. Under a unified theoretical framework, two kinds of valley-projected topological acoustic insulators are distinguished analytically, i.e., the layer-mixed and layer-polarized topological valley Hall phases, respectively. The theory is evidently confirmed by our numerical and experimental observations of the nontrivial edge states that propagate along the interfaces separating different topological phases. Various applications such as sound communications in integrated devices, can be anticipated by the intriguing acoustic edge states enriched by the layer information.
