Intrinsic dissipation in high-frequency micromechanical resonators
We report measurements of intrinsic dissipation in micron-sized suspended resonators machined from single crystals of galium arsenide and silicon. In these experiments on high-frequency micromechanical resonators, designed to understand intrinsic mechanisms of dissipation, we explore dependence of dissipation on temperature, magnetic field, frequency, and size. In contrast to most of the previo...
متن کاملFunctionalized Micromechanical Resonators with High Quality Factors
The dissipation of mechanical energy in 250-nm-thick, MHz-range silicon resonators is found to be strongly dependent on the chemical nature of the surface. As a result, sub-monolayer changes in the termination of 250-nm-thick resonators lead to significant changes in quality (Q) factor. The chemical origins of this effect are under investigation. Strategies for the formation of arbitrarily func...
متن کاملDissipation in ultrahigh quality factor SiN membrane resonators.
We study the mechanical properties of stoichiometric SiN resonators through a combination of spectroscopic and interferometric imaging techniques. At room temperature, we demonstrate ultrahigh quality factors of 5×107 and a f×Q product of 1×1014 Hz. To our knowledge, these correspond to the largest values yet reported for mesoscopic flexural resonators. Through a comprehensive study of the lim...
متن کاملElectrothermal Frequency Tuning of Folded and Coupled Vibrating Micromechanical Resonators
The use of constrained thermal expansion to tune the resonant frequency of vibrating micromechanical resonators is explored. A simple model is developed to predict the power sensitivity obtained with folded and unfolded geometries, including the effects of electrothermal heating, and conduction and convection cooling. It is shown that the sensitivity of folded structures can change sign as the ...
متن کاملFocused ion beam tuning of in-plane vibrating micromechanical resonators
Vibrating resonators are important components of micromechanical systems, with applications in sensors and actuators. However, defects and stresses can cause resonance shifts, and it is important to develop methods of tuning. Passive methods are based on dimensional trimming and active methods on electrically-induced stress. For example, reactive ion etching (RIE) has been used to apply global ...
