In-situ comprehensive calibration of a tri-port nano-electro-mechanical device
E. Collin, M. Defoort, K. Lulla +5
We report on experiments performed in vacuum and at cryogenic temperatures on a tri-port nano-electro-mechanical (NEMS) device. One port is a very non-linear capacitive actuation,…
Modal "self-coupling" as a sensitive probe for nanomechanical detection
M. Defoort, K. J. Lulla, C. Blanc +3
We present a high-sensitivity measurement technique for mechanical nanoresonators. Due to intrinsic nonlinear effects, different flexural modes of a nanobeam can be coupled while d…
Classical decoherence in a nanomechanical resonator
Olivier Maillet, Frantisek Vavrek, Andrew D. Fefferman +2
Decoherence is an essential mechanism that defines the boundary between classical and quantum behaviours, while imposing technological bounds for quantum devices. Little is known a…
Modal Decomposition in Goalpost Micro/nano Electro-mechanical Devices
Eddy Collin, Martial Defoort, Kunal Lulla +5
We have studied the first three symmetric out-of-plane flexural resonance modes of a goalpost silicon micro-mechanical device. Measurements have been performed at 4.2K in vacuum, d…
Highly sensitive thermal conductivity measurements of suspended membranes (SiN and diamond) using a 3w-Volklein method
A. Sikora, H. Ftouni, J. Richard +4
A suspended system for measuring the thermal properties of membranes is presented. The sensitive thermal measurement is based on the 3 dynamic method coupled to a Vlkl…
Audio mixing in a tri-port nano-electro-mechanical device
M. Defoort, K. Lulla, J. -S. Heron +3
We report on experiments performed on a cantilever-based tri-port nano-electro-mechanical (NEMS) device. Two ports are used for actuation and detection through the magnetomotive sc…
