Clamp-Tapering Increases the Quality Factor of Stressed Nanobeams

Tobias Kippenberg, Alberto Beccari, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Stressed nanomechanical resonators are known to have exceptionally high quality factors (Q) due to the dilution of intrinsic dissipation by stress. Typically, the amount of dissipation dilution and thus the resonator Q is limited by the high mode curvature ...

Ultralow Dissipation Mechanical Resonators for Quantum Optomechanics

Tobias Kippenberg, Alberto Beccari, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

We demonstrate dissipation dilution engineering techniques for ultralow dissipation mechanical resonators. The Si3N4 nanobeams show quality factors (Q) as high as 800 million and Q x f exceeding 10(15) Hz-both records at room temperature. (C) 2019 The Auth ...

Generalized dissipation dilution in strained mechanical resonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Mechanical resonators with high quality factors are widely used in precision experiments, ranging from gravitational wave detection and force sensing to quantum optomechanics. Beams and membranes are well known to exhibit flexural modes with enhanced quali ...

Elastic strain engineering for ultralow mechanical dissipation

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Extreme stresses can be produced in nanoscale structures, a feature which has been used to realize enhanced materials properties, such as the high mobility of silicon in modern transistors. Here we show how nanoscale stress can be used to realize exception ...

Radiation and Internal Loss Engineering of High-Stress Silicon Nitride Nanobeams

Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

High-stress Si3N4 nanoresonators have become an attractive choice for electro- and optomechanical devices. Membrane resonators can achieve quality factor (Q)frequency (f) products exceeding 10(13) Hz, enabling (in principle) quantum coherent operation at r ...

Appearance and Disappearance of Quantum Correlations in Measurement-Based Feedback Control of a Mechanical Oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Sergey Fedorov, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Vivishek Sudhir, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Quantum correlations between imprecision and backaction are a hallmark of continuous linear measurements. Here, we study how measurement-based feedback can be used to improve the visibility of quantum correlations due to the interaction of a laser field wi ...

Near-Field Integration of a SiN Nanobeam and a SiO2 Microcavity for Heisenberg-Limited Displacement Sensing

Tobias Kippenberg, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Ryan Daniel Schilling, Vivishek Sudhir, Amir Hossein Ghadimi

Placing a nanomechanical object in the evanescent near field of a high-Q optical microcavity gives access to strong gradient forces and quantum-limited displacement readout, offering an attractive platform for both precision sensing technology and basic qu ...
