Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2) Nanoelectromechanical Resonators With On-Chip Aluminum Nitride (AlN) Piezoelectric Excitation

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Tom Larsen, Muhammad Faizan

We report on the first experimental demonstration of vibrating two-dimensional nanoelectromechanical systems (2D NEMS) with on-chip piezoelectric excitation. Combining a wafer-scale aluminum nitride (AlN) thin film technology with an all-dry transfer techn ...

Effective quality factor tuning mechanisms in micromechanical resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Azadeh Ansari

Quality factor (Q) is an important property of micro- and nano-electromechanical (MEM/NEM) resonators that underlie timing references, frequency sources, atomic force microscopes, gyroscopes, and mass sensors. Various methods have been utilized to tune the ...
