During the past decade, metamaterial-based vibration energy harvesters (meta-VEHs) have been increasingly developed owing to the extraordinary characteristics of metamaterials, such as locally resonant bandgap, defect state, and wave focusing features. In this paper, the interface state, a feature r...
