Effective medium theory for the low-temperature heat capacity of a metasolid plate

Modeling artificial nanostructures in terms of effective materials parameters is important for gaining physical insight into their behavior and facilitating their optimization. Here, an analytical effective medium theory for the heat capacity of holey phononic crystals is derived, revealing the effe...

description Modeling artificial nanostructures in terms of effective materials parameters is important for gaining physical insight into their behavior and facilitating their optimization. Here, an analytical effective medium theory for the heat capacity of holey phononic crystals is derived, revealing the effect of the emergent anisotropic elastic response of the metasolid.
