Interactions between directly and parametrically driven vibration modes in a micromechanical resonator
H. J. R. Westra, D. M. Karabacak, S. H. Brongersma +3
The interactions between parametrically and directly driven vibration modes of a clamped-clamped beam resonator are studied. An integrated piezoelectric transducer is used for dire…

Q-factor control of a microcantilever by mechanical sideband excitation
W. J. Venstra, H. J. R. Westra, H. S. J. van der Zant
We demonstrate the coupling between the fundamental and second flexural mode of a microcantilever. A mechanical analogue of cavity-optomechanics is then employed, where the mechani…
