Abstract Phononic crystal (PnC) has been proved for its manipulation and amplification of elastic waves. Using this characteristic of PnC to assist energy harvesting has remarkable effect. Generally, defect occurs when unit cell in PnC is replaced by another cell with different geometric or material properties, the output electric power of piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) devices will be significantly enhanced. In this study, a cross hole-type PnC-assisted PEH device with a large-size defect is presented by replacing several adjacent multiple cells with other cells. It is found that multiple peak voltages can be created within BG and multimodal energy harvesting can be performed. Compared with the defect mode composed of a small-size defect, energy localization and amplification of the proposed PnC leads to substantially enhancement of harvesting power after tailoring geometric parameters of a PEH device. This work will be expected to design PnC-assisted PEH devices in a reasonable way.
