Modelling and observation of nonlinear damping in dissipation-diluted nanomechanical resonators
Letizia Catalini, Massimiliano Rossi, Eric C. Langman +1
Dissipation dilution enables extremely low linear loss in stressed, high-aspect ratio nanomechanical resonators, such as strings or membranes. Here, we report on the observation an…

Membrane-based scanning force microscopy
David Hälg, Thomas Gisler, Yeghishe Tsaturyan +11
We report the development of a scanning force microscope based on an ultra-sensitive silicon nitride membrane transducer. Our development is made possible by inverting the standard…
