The performance of a wide variety of ultra-sensitive devices employing nanoelectromechanical resonators is determined by their mechanical quality factor, yet energy dissipation in these systems remains poorly understood. Here we develop a…
In this paper, we derive a series of exact analytical closed expressions to calculate the complex eigenfrequencies and the displacement for the corresponding eigenmodes of a viscoelastic (nano-)sphere in the presence of linear damping.…
We study locking phenomena of two strongly coupled, high-quality factor nanomechanical resonator modes subject to a common parametric drive at a single drive frequency. By controlled dielectric gradient forces we tune the resonance…
We study the response of a weakly damped vibrational mode of a nanostring resonator to a moderately strong resonant driving force. Because of the geometry of the experiment, the studied flexural vibrations lack inversion symmetry. As we…
Nanomechanical resonators based on strained silicon nitride (Si$_3$N$_4$) have received a large amount of attention in fields such as sensing and quantum optomechanics due to their exceptionally high quality factors ($Q$s). Room-temperature…
Dissipation dilution enables extremely low linear loss in stressed, high-aspect ratio nanomechanical resonators, such as strings or membranes. Here, we report on the observation and theoretical modelling of nonlinear dissipation in such…
In strained mechanical resonators, the concurrence of tensile stress and geometric nonlinearity dramatically reduces dissipation. This phenomenon, dissipation dilution, is employed in mirror suspensions of gravitational wave interferometers…
State of the art nanomechanical resonators present quality factors Q ~ 10^3 - 10^5, which are much lower than those that can be naively extrapolated from the behavior of micromechanical resonators. We analyze the dissipation mechanism that…
A combination of micro-Raman spectroscopy and micro-XPS (X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy) mapping on statically deflected p-type silicon cantilevers is used to study the mechanical stress dependence of the Fermi level pinning at an…
We consider the tension-induced non-linearities of mechanical resonators, and derive the Hamiltonian of the flexural modes up to the fourth order in the position operators. This tension can be controlled by a nearby gate voltage. We focus…
The effects of pressure on micromechanical air-filled cavities made by a pair of suspended, parallel silicon nitride membranes are investigated in the free molecular and quasi-molecular regimes. Variations of the fundamental drummode…
A (Ga,Mn)As nanoelectromechanical resonator is used to obtain the first direct measurement of magnetostriction in a dilute magnetic semiconductor. Field-dependent magnetoelastic stress induces shifts in resonance frequency that can be…
We recently developed a tensorial constitutive model for dense, shear-thickening particle suspensions that combines rate-independent microstructural evolution with a stress-dependent jamming threshold. This gives a good qualitative account…
We present a general study of oscillations in suspended one-dimensional elastic systems clamped at each end, exploring a wide range of slack (excess length) and downward external forces. Our results apply directly to recent experiments in…
The sensitivity of mechanical resonators to physical quantities such as acceleration, pressure, mass and temperature enables them to underpin sensing and metrology applications. Here, we observe that the resonance frequency of a…
We present results from a study of the nonlinear intermodal coupling between different flexural vibrational modes of a single high-stress, doubly-clamped silicon nitride nanomechanical beam. The measurements were carried out at 100 mK and…
We demonstrate a strong dependence of the effective damping on the nanomagnet size and the particular spin-wave mode that can be explained by the theory of intralayer transverse-spin-pumping. The effective Landau-Lifshitz damping is…
Magnetic damping is a key metric for emerging technologies based on magnetic nanoparticles, such as spin torque memory and high-resolution biomagnetic imaging. Despite its importance, understanding of magnetic dissipation in nanoscale…
Inspired by some recent experiments and numerical works related to nanoresonators, we perform classical molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the thermal expansion and the ability of the device to act as a strain sensor assisted by…
Because of the broken time-translation symmetry, in periodically driven vibrational systems fluctuations of different vibration components have different intensities. Fluctuations of one of the components are often squeezed, whereas…
