A self-sustaining ultrahigh-frequency nanoelectromechanical oscillator.
Sensors based on nanoelectromechanical systems vibrating at high and ultrahigh frequencies are capable of levels of performance that surpass those of larger sensors. Nanoelectromechanical devices have achieved unprecedented sensitivity in the detection of displacement, mass, force and charge. To date, these milestones have been achieved with passive devices that require external periodic or imp...
متن کاملGraphene as a Massless Electrode for Ultrahigh-Frequency Piezoelectric Nanoelectromechanical Systems.
Designing "ideal electrodes" that simultaneously guarantee low mechanical damping and electrical loss as well as high electromechanical coupling in ultralow-volume piezoelectric nanomechanical structures can be considered to be a key challenge in the NEMS field. We show that mechanically transferred graphene, floating at van der Waals proximity, closely mimics "ideal electrodes" for ultrahigh f...

interactions occurring within the specific phase of the polymer–nanotube complex. This approach could be relevant for the development of smart devices for in situ functional healing actions activated by a signal transmitted from a sensing element on selective responses to a metabolite. Despite recent advances7, however, to become fully operational, smart devices based on carbon nanotube materia...
متن کاملA Self-Sustaining, Light-Entrainable Circadian Oscillator in the Drosophila Brain
BACKGROUND The circadian clock of Drosophila is able to drive behavioral rhythms for many weeks in continuous darkness (DD). The endogenous rhythm generator is thought to be generated by interlocked molecular feedback loops involving circadian transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of several clock genes, including period. However, all attempts to demonstrate sustained rhythms of cl...
متن کاملDetection of qubit-oscillator entanglement in nanoelectromechanical systems.
Experiments over the past years have demonstrated that it is possible to bring nanomechanical resonators and superconducting qubits close to the quantum regime and to measure their properties with an accuracy close to the Heisenberg uncertainty limit. Therefore, it is just a question of time before we will routinely see true quantum effects in nanomechanical systems. One of the hallmarks of qua...
