Phononic Casimir corrections for Graphene resonator
摘要: By calculating a Casimir energy for the acoustic phonons of Graphene, we find some temperature-dependent corrections for the pretension of a Graphene sheet suspended on a trench. We obtain values of the order of few mN/m for these corrections in fully as well as doubly clamped Graphene on a narrow trench with one nanometer width, at room temperature. These values are considerable compared to the experimental values, and can increase the fundamental resonance frequency of the Graphene. The values of these corrections increase by increasing the temperature, and so they can be utilized for tuning the Graphene pretension.

Finite-time Stückelberg interferometry with nanomechanical modes
摘要: Stückelberg interferometry describes the interference of two strongly coupled modes during a double passage through an avoided energy level crossing. In this work, we investigate finite-time effects in Stückelberg interferometry and discuss the exact analytical solution of the double passage Stückelberg problem by expanding the finite-time solution of the Landau–Zener problem. Approximating the return probability amplitudes of the double passage in distinct limits reveals uncharted parameter regimes of Stückelberg interferometry where finite-time effects affect the coherent exchange of energy. We find the long-time limit of the exact solution to formally coincide with the well-established adiabatic impulse model which is, to the best of our knowledge, the only regime of Stückelberg interferometry reported so far. Experimentally, we study all predicted regimes using a purely classical, strongly coupled nanomechanical two-mode system of high quality factor. The classical two-mode system consists of the in-plane and out-of-plane fundamental flexural mode of a high stress silicon nitride string resonator, coupled via electric gradient fields. We exploit our experimental and theoretical findings by studying the onset of Stückelberg interference in dependence of the characteristic system control parameters and obtain characteristic excitation oscillations between the two modes even without the explicit need of traversing the avoided crossing. The presented findings are not limited to classical mechanical two-mode systems but can be applied to every strongly coupled (quantum) two-level system, for example a spin-1/2 system or superconducting qubit.

Elastic Properties of Suspended Conducting GaAs/AlGaAs Nanostructures by Means of Atomic Force Microscopy
摘要: This paper demonstrates the applicability of nanoindentation technique using atomic-force microscope cantilever for studying the elastic properties of suspended semiconductor structures on the basis of relatively thick GaAs/AlGaAs membranes in the case when their stiffness significantly exceeds that of the cantilever of atomic-force microscope, which is confirmed by the agreement between the experimentally determined values of both relative and absolute stiffness measured at different points of the investigated structure with theoretical predictions.

Hexagonal Boron Nitride Phononic Crystal Waveguides
摘要: Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), one of the hallmark van der Waals (vdW) layered crystals with an ensemble of attractive physical properties, is playing increasingly important roles in exploring two-dimensional (2D) electronics, photonics, mechanics, and emerging quantum engineering. Here we report on the demonstration of h-BN phononic crystal waveguides with designed pass and stop bands in the radio frequency (RF) range, and controllable wave propagation and transmission, by harnessing arrays of coupled h-BN nanomechanical resonators with engineerable coupling strength. Experimental measurements validate that these phononic crystal waveguides confine and support 15 to 24 megahertz (MHz) wave propagation over hundreds of micrometers. Analogous to solid-state crystal lattices, phononic bandgaps and dispersive behaviors have been observed and systematically investigated in the h-BN phononic waveguides. Guiding and manipulating acoustic waves on such additively integratable h-BN platform may facilitate multiphysical coupling and information transduction, and open up new opportunities for coherent on-chip signal processing and communication via emerging h-BN photonic and phononic devices.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC) - Reston, VA, USA (2018.9.30-2018.10.4)] 2018 IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC) - Cavity Optomechanical Photothermal Sensors
摘要: We experimentally demonstrate a cavity optomechanical sensor that is actuated with gradient optical forces. The sensor can detect incident radiation via absorption and resulting photothermally-induced frequency shifts of the nanomechanical oscillator. Analysis suggests that nanostrain sensitivity and fJ-level energy detection are possible.

Multiplexed functionalization of nanoelectromechanical systems with photopatterned molecularly imprinted polymers
摘要: Implementing dedicated and reliable biochemical recognition functionalities onto nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) is of primary importance for their development as ultra-sensitive and highly-integrated biosensing devices. In this paper, we demonstrate the large-scale and multiplexed integration of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as highly stable biomimetic receptors onto arrays of nanocantilevers. Integration is carried out by spin-coating and photopatterning the polymer layers before releasing the nanostructures. We demonstrate that these biomimetic layers are robust enough to withstand the wet-etch of the sacrificial layer making this functionalization strategy compatible with further MEMS/NEMS processing. As a proof of concept, we fabricate NEMS resonators coated with a MIP using Boc-L-phenylalanine (Boc-L-Phe) as the template molecule. We demonstrate the preserved molecular recognition ability of the patterned sensitive layer through the fluorescence detection of dansyl-L-phenylalanine (dansyl-L-Phe), a fluorescent derivative of the template, and the mechanical integrity of the resonators by means of resonant frequency measurements.
