Dynamic Actuation of Single-Crystal Diamond Nanobeams
arXiv:1408.5822 · doi:10.1063/1.4937625
Abstract
We show the dielectrophoretic actuation of single-crystal diamond nanomechanical devices. Gradient radio-frequency electromagnetic forces are used to achieve actuation of both cantilever and doubly clamped beam structures, with operation frequencies ranging from a few MHz to ~50MHz. Frequency tuning and parametric actuation are also studied.
