Quantum Friction in Nanomechanical Oscillators at Millikelvin Temperatures

Guiti Zolfagharkhani, Alexei Gaidarzhy, Seung-Bo Shim +2

We report low-temperature measurements of dissipation in megahertz-range, suspended, single-crystal nanomechanical oscillators. At millikelvin temperatures, both dissipation (inver…

Coherent Signal Amplification in Bistable Nanomechanical Oscillators by Stochastic Resonance

R. L. Badzey, P. Mohanty

Stochastic resonance is a counter-intuitive concept[1,2], ; the addition of noise to a noisy system induces coherent amplification of its response. First suggested as a mechanism f…

Signal Processing and Control in Nonlinear Nanomechanical Systems

R. L. Badzey, G. Zolfagharkhani, S. -B. Shim +2

Bestriding the realms of classical and quantum mechanics, nanomechanical structures offer great promise for a huge variety of applications, from computer memory elements \cite{badz…

Comment on the "Comment by Schwab, Blencowe, Roukes, Cleland, Girvin, Milburn, and Ekinci: quant-ph/0503018"

A. Gaidarzhy, G. Zolfagharkhani, R. L. Badzey +1

We show that arguments in the comment by Schwab et al. quant-ph/0503018 on our recent work are invalid.

Evidence for Quantized Displacement in Macroscopic Nanomechanical Oscillators

Alexei Gaidarzhy, Guiti Zolfagharkhani, Robert L. Badzey +1

We report the observation of discrete displacement of nanomechanical oscillators with gigahertz-range resonance frequencies at millikelvin temperatures. The oscillators are nanomac…

Temperature dependence of a nanomechanical switch

Robert L. Badzey, Guiti Zolfagharkhani, Alexei Gaidarzhy +1

We present the effect of temperature on the switching characteristics of a bistable nonlinear nanomechanical beam. At MHz-range frequencies, we find that it is possible to controll…
