Modal interactions of flexural and torsional vibrations in a microcantilever
H. J. R. Westra, H. S. J. van der Zant, W. J. Venstra
The nonlinear interactions between flexural and torsional modes of a microcantilever are experimentally studied. The coupling is demonstrated by measuring the frequency response of…

Mechanical stiffening, bistability, and bit operations in a microcantilever
Warner J. Venstra, Hidde J. R. Westra, Herre S. J. van der Zant
We investigate the nonlinear dynamics of microcantilevers. We demonstrate mechanical stiffening of the frequency response at large amplitudes, originating from the geometric nonlin…
