Title :
Phononic crystals for enhanced opto-acoustic interactions
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
Phononic crystals have enabled the fabrication of strongly confining and slow-sound waveguides operating for acoustic wavelengths commensurate with optical wavelengths. The possibility of designing nanostructures showing enhanced opto-acoustic is discussed.
