Phonon crystal tether is a promising way to restrain the acoustic wave propagation in the supporting tethers, since they can arouse complete band gaps in which the transmissions of the elastic waves are prohibited. Thus, the vibration energy is retained in the resonator body, reducing the anchor losses into the substrate. Besides the phonon crystal tether, some other kinds of metamaterial could be applied to the anchor and surrounding regions to prohibit the wave transmission. A key drawback of this method is the challenge to the fabrication process.
