1/f frequency-noise reduction in nanomechanical resonators by dissipation dilution

Kostas Kanellopulos, Silvan Schmid

The frequency noise of a resonant nanomechanical sensor is well understood down to its thermomechanical limit, but the longest useful averaging time is set by a flicker, or ,…

Reduction of intrinsic losses in nanomechanical silicon nitride resonators through thermal treatment in ultrahigh vacuum

Nicola Cavalleri, Ariane Giesriegl, Robert G. West +7

Since the discovery of dissipation dilution, silicon nitride (SiN) nanomechanical resonators have set the benchmark for ultracoherent mechanical systems, with geometry and strain e…

Mode-dependent photothermal responsivity mapping of tensile-stressed nanomechanical resonators

Thomas M. Tropper, Silvan Schmid

The photothermal responsivity of a tensioned nanomechanical resonator, the fractional frequency shift per absorbed optical power, depends on which vibrational mode is tracked and w…

Position-Dependent Calibration and Frequency Stability in On-Axis Optical Transduction of Vertical InP Nanowire Resonators

Robert G. West, Kostas Kanellopulos, Lukas Hrachowina +2

We present a quantitative framework for on-axis optical transduction of vertical InP nanowire resonators, correlating laser position to signal amplitude, calibration, and frequency…
