Abstract
We study scattering resonances of finite and infinite periodic two- and three-dimensional systems of high-contrast resonators beyond the subwavelength regime. Introducing frequency-dependent capacitance matrices, we derive quantitative asymptotic expansions of hybridized Fabry-Pérot resonant frequencies and their corresponding eigenmodes in terms of the material contrast parameter. We provide a partial differential equation (PDE) formulation of the frequency-dependent capacitance matrix analogous to the one for the capacitance matrix in the subwavelength regime. Based on this PDE formulation, we establish key properties of the frequency-dependent capacitance matrix and estimate its norm at high frequencies, substantiating the uniformity of our asymptotic expansions. For infinite periodic resonator arrays, we prove that they support bandgap opening and Dirac degeneracies at arbitrarily high frequencies. Our results extend the use of discrete approximations as a powerful tool for characterizing the resonant properties of finite and infinite periodic systems of high-contrast resonators at arbitrarily high frequencies and understanding their anomalous localization and transport properties arising from strong coupling to a discrete set of eigenfrequencies.

Keywords: Fabry-Pérot scattering resonance, frequency-dependent capacitance matrix, high-contrast resonator, discrete approximation, periodic structure, Dirac degeneracy, bandgap, scattering resonances at high frequencies
