Abstract
A number of one-dimensional phononic crystals, which are periodic thin-film structures of various geometries, consisting of sets of columns and metal inclusions located on a piezoelectric half-space, have been proposed and studied. The features of propagation in such structures of acoustic waves localized near the free surface and inhomogeneous inclusions have been studied. An unusual behavior of the dispersion curves for the studied localized modes was discovered. Particular attention is drawn to the so-called forbidden zones, i.e. frequency ranges in which there are no propagating localized modes. The influence of mechanical and electrical boundary conditions on the spectrum of the waves under study is discussed in detail.
