Finite time Stückelberg interferometry with nanomechanical modes

Maximilian J. Seitner, Hugo Ribeiro, Johannes Kölbl +2

Stückelberg interferometry describes the interference of two strongly coupled modes during a double passage through an avoided energy level crossing. In this work, we experimentall…

Classical Stückelberg interferometry of a nanomechanical two-mode system at room temperature

Maximilian J. Seitner, Hugo Ribeiro, Johannes Kölbl +3

The transition from classical to quantum mechanics has intrigued scientists in the past and remains one of the most fundamental conceptual challenges in state-of-the-art physics. B…

Circuit Electromechanics with a Non-Metallized Nanobeam

Matthias Pernpeintner, Thomas Faust, Fredrik Hocke +4

We have realized a nano-electromechanical hybrid system consisting of a silicon nitride beam dielectrically coupled to a superconducting microwave resonator. We characterize the sa…

Signatures of two-level defects in the temperature-dependent damping of nanomechanical silicon nitride resonators

Thomas Faust, Johannes Rieger, Maximilian J. Seitner +2

The damping rates of high quality factor nanomechanical resonators are well beyond intrinsic limits. Here, we explore the underlying microscopic loss mechanisms by investigating th…

Coherent control of a nanomechanical two-level system

Thomas Faust, Johannes Rieger, Maximilian J. Seitner +2

The Bloch sphere is a generic picture describing a coupled two-level system and the coherent dynamics of its superposition states under control of electromagnetic fields. It is com…

Frequency and Q-factor control of nanomechanical resonators

Johannes Rieger, Thomas Faust, Maximilian J. Seitner +2

We present an integrated scheme for dielectric drive and read-out of high-Q nanomechanical resonators which enables tuning of both the resonance frequency and quality factor with a…
