Mechanical graphene
We present a model of a mechanical system with a vibrational mode spectrum identical to the spectrum of electronic excitations in a tight-binding model of graphene. The model consists of point masses connected by elastic couplings, called ‘tri-bonds’, that implement certain three-body interactions,...
