Abstract
- Elastic interface states, which are usually generated at the interface of two connected domains with opposite topological invariant, have been successfully demonstrated in periodic structures. Therefore, the interface states determined by the position of interface between two domain walls in one-dimensional elastic systems are rarely reported, which were mainly restricted by the mirror-symmetric geometry of the unit cell. Jointing interface-dependent interface states were mostly implemented with analogs of quantum valley Hall effects in two-dimensional systems. Herein, we first observe two types of elastic interface states simultaneously occurred in one-dimensional combined metamaterials, where two interface modes separately located at two connected domain walls and they can be actively tuned simply through deforming two components on two sides. Flexible and versatile frequency shift and switch on–off characteristics of combination of two interface modes are demonstrated, which may be employed in the multifunctional elastic wave filters, tunable energy harvesting, and elastography devices. Our primitive cell of the soft metamaterial, which breaks the inversion symmetry along the horizontal direction, may be generalized to realize tunable elastic valley Hall edge states.
