Nanomechanics, nanoacoustics, and nanophononics refer to the engineering of acoustic phonons and elastic waves at the nanoscale and their interactions with other excitations, such as magnons, electrons, and photons. This engineering enables the manipulation and control of solid-state properties that depend on the relative positions of atoms in a lattice. The access to advanced nanofabrication and novel characterization techniques enabled a fast development of the fields over the last decade. The applications of nanophononics include thermal management, ultrafast data processing, simulation, sensing, and the development of quantum technologies. In this review, we cover some of the milestones and breakthroughs and identify promising pathways of these emerging fields. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
