[摘要]：In this work, we theoretically predict the possibility to obtain a giant hypersonic elastic mirror in porous silicon superlattices by using a phononic heterostructure. The heterostructure is composed of a tandem of multiple phononic crystal lattices with periods in the range 37-167 nm, which recently have been experimentally reported [L. C. Parsons and G. T. Andrews, Appl. Phys. Lett. 95, 241909 (2009)]. Considering the scalability of the eigenvalues of the elastic wave equation, the lattices are chosen such that each stop band can be superposed to obtain a larger overall stop band. Theoretical evidence of a giant hypersonic phononic mirror for longitudinal and transverse vibrations is found in the gigahertz range. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3655677]
