We report three-dimensional laser microfabrication, which enables microstructuring of materials on the scale of 0.2-1 micrometers. The two different types of microfabrication demonstrated and discussed in this work are based on holographic…
We demonstrate a new method for creation of surface nanoscale axial photonics (SNAP) microresonators with harmonic profiles via fiber tapering in a laser-heated microfurnace. The simple procedure makes microresonators that support hundreds…
Methods on reducing resonant frequencies and electrical sizes of resonators are reported in this paper. Theoreti-cal and numerical analysis has been used and the results for the broadside-coupled resonators from both studies exhibit good…
Thin-shell structures, found in biological systems such as beetle carapaces and widely used in aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering, achieve remarkable strength-to-mass ratio given their slenderness and curved geometries. However,…
Silicon carbide (SiC) excels in its outstanding mechanical properties, which are widely studied in Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Recently, the mechanical tuning of color centers in 4H-SiC has been demonstrated, broadening its…
It is now well established that materials are stronger when their dimensions are reduced to submicron scale. However, what happens at dimensions such as a few tens of nanometers or lower remains largely unknown, with conflicting reports on…
Optomechanical sensors enable exquisitely sensitive force measurements, with emerging applications across quantum technologies, standards, fundamental science, and engineering. Magnetometry is among the most promising applications, where…
Encapsulation layers are explored for passivating the surfaces of silicon to reduce optical absorption in the 1500-nm wavelength band. Surface-sensitive test structures consisting of microdisk resonators are fabricated for this purpose.…

In order to get homogeneous nanostructured Aluminum Nitride deposits, thin films were grown at room temperature on [001] Si substrates by radio frequency magnetron reactive sputtering. The deposits were analysed by Transmission Electron…
Suspended micro-structures based on complex oxides relies on surface micro-machining processes such as those based on sacrificial layers. These processes prevent to physically access the microstructures from both sides, as substantial part…
A reliable process has been developed for the fabrication of all-Nb single-electron circuits, based on spin-on glass planarization. The process steps are the in situ growth of Nb/AlOx/Nb sandwich, definition of the patterns of junctions,…
The rapid progress in 2D material research has triggered the growth of various quantum nanostructures-nanosheets, nanowires, nanoribbons, nanocrystals and the exotic nature originating through 2D heterostructures has extended the synthesis…
We have achieved stimulated laser cooling of thermal rubidium atomic beams on a silicon chip. Following pre-collimation via a silicon microchannel array, we perform beam brightening via a blue-detuned optical molasses. Owing to the small…
We present a guide for the design and fabrication of a CMOS-compatible metamaterial microstructure as an absorber of visible light with exceptionally high absorption efficiency (~ 98%), for wavelengths 400nm-700nm. The structural parameters…
Besides being the foundational material for microelectronics, in optics, crystalline silicon has long been used for making infrared lenses and mirrors. More recently, silicon has become the key material to achieve large-scale integration of…
The observation that the thermal conductivity of single-crystalline silicon nanowires with diameter on the length scale of 25 nm is lower than that of bulk material by two orders of magnitude has attracted the interest onto silicon as a…
Sila-cyclic rings are a class of organosilicon cyclic compounds and have abundant application in organic chemistry and materials science. However, it is still challenging to synthesize compounds with sila-cyclic rings in solution chemistry…
Many promising building blocks of future electronic technology - including non-stoichiometric compounds, strongly correlated oxides, and strained or patterned films - are inhomogeneous on the nanometer length scale. Exploiting the…
