Honeycomb-lattice Minnaert bubbles

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to rigorously show the existence of a Dirac dispersion cone in a bubbly honeycomb phononic crystal comprised of bubbles of arbitrary shape. The main result is an asymptotic formula for the quasi-periodic Minnaert resonance frequencies close to the symmetry points K in the Brilloun zone. This shows the linear dispersion relation of a Dirac cone. Our findings in this paper are illustrated in the case of circular bubbles, where the multipole expansion method provides an efficient technique for computing the band structure.

Keywords: Honeycomb lattice, Dirac cone, bubble, Minnaert resonance, subwavelength bandgap.
