Clamp-tapering increases the quality factor of stressed nanobeams

Mohammad J. Bereyhi, Alberto Beccari, Sergey A. Fedorov +5

Stressed nanomechanical resonators are known to have exceptionally high quality factors () due to the dilution of intrinsic dissipation by stress. Typically, the amount of dissi…
