High intermodulation gain in a micromechanical Duffing resonator
R. Almog, S. Zaitsev, O. Shtempluck +1
In this work we use a micromechanical resonator to experimentally study small signal amplification near the onset of Duffing bistability. The device consists of a PdAu beam serving…

Nonlinear damping in nanomechanical beam oscillator
Stav Zaitsev, Ronen Almog, Oleg Shtempluck +1
We investigate the impact of nonlinear damping on the dynamics of a nanomechanical doubly clamped beam. The beam is driven into nonlinear regime and the response is measured by a d…
