Phononic crystals consist of periodic distributions of scatterers in a host matrix. Destructive interference of several scattered waves leads to the appearance of the most prominent characteristic of phononic crystals, namely the phononic band gap. Using these crystals and creating defects in its periodicity, these crystals can be used in various applications such as filters, lenses, waveguides, demultiplexers, sensors, etc. In this study, we present two 2D phononic crystals with square and triangular lattices of water cylinders in mercury. To simulate the proposed devices, plane wave expansion method and finite element method in Comsol multiphysics software are used. The resonant frequencies of the proposed 1×4 demultiplexer with square lattice are 66.09, 68.23, 70.27 and 72.49 KHz. In this structure the mean of quality factors is 3042, the minimum crosstalk is -42 dB, and the dimensions of the structure is 218×118
