Nanomechanical resonators with low dissipation for quantum optomechanics

Alberto Beccari

Fields of technology as diverse as microwave filter construction, characterization of material interfaces with atomic precision, and detection of gravitational waves from astronomical sources employ mechanical resonators at their core. The utility of mecha ...

FEM simulation: Thermal properties of thin film quartz and silicon resonators

This semester project aimed at simulating two approaches for low temperature dependence of resonance frequency of resonators. The first one consists in using AT-cut quartz as the resonator’s material. The AT-cut quartz wafers are made using a 35° angle wit ...

Quantum Measurement of Mechanical Motion close to the Standard Quantum Limit

Liu Qiu

In quantum mechanics, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle places a fundamental limit in the measurement precision for certain pairs of physical quantities, such as position and momentum, time and energy or amplitude and phase. Due to the Heisenberg uncert ...

Fabrication of clamped-clamped beam resonators with embedded fluidic nanochannel

Philippe Renaud, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Annalisa De Pastina, Damien Maillard, Stefano Silvio Giovanni Varricchio, Carlo Ricciardi, Davide Scaiola, Stefano Stassi

Suspended nanochannel resonators (SNRs) are promising devices able to characterize mass down to the attogram scale, thus being able to detect nanoparticles or biomolecules. In this paper, we present a flexible fabrication process for SNRs based on a sacrif ...

Flexure Pivot Oscillator Insensitive to Gravity

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan

The mechanical oscillator according to the invention comprises an oscillating body (601), at least one rigid intermediate body (602) and a support (600). Each rigid intermediate body is connected to the support by a pair of elements (610, 611) providing ro ...

Arbitrarily high time bandwidth performance in a nonreciprocal optical resonator with broken time invariance

Camille Sophie Brès, Hatice Altug, Davide Grassani, Ivan Cardea, Kosmas Tsakmakidis, Simon Julien Fabbri

Most present-day resonant systems, throughout physics and engineering, are characterized by a strict time-reversal symmetry between the rates of energy coupled in and out of the system, which leads to a trade-off between how long a wave can be stored in th ...
