文摘Absolute phononic band gaps can be substantially improved in two-dimensional lattices by using a symmetry reduction approach. In this paper, the propagation of elastic waves in a two-dirnensional hybrid triangular lattice structure consisting of stainless steel cylinders in air is investigated theoretically. The band structure is calculated with the plane wave expansion （PWE） method. The hybrid triangular Bravais lattice is formed by two kinds of triangular lattices. Different from ordinary triangular lattices, the band gap opens at low frequency （between the first and the second bands） regime because of lifting the bands degeneracy at high symmetry points of the Brillouin zone. The location and width of the band gaps can be tuned by the position of the additional rods.
