Response of parametrically driven nonlinear coupled oscillators with application to micromechanical and nanomechanical resonator arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
The response of a coupled array of nonlinear oscillators to parametric excitation is calculated in the weak nonlinear limit using secular perturbation theory. Exact results for small arrays of oscillators are used to guide the analysis of the numerical integration of the model equations of motion for large arrays. The results provide a qualitative explanation for a recent experiment @Buks and Roukes, J. Microelectromech. Syst. 11, 802 ~2002!# involving a parametrically excited micromechanical resonator array. Future experiments are suggested which could provide quantitative tests of the theoretical predictions.

We consider a theoretical model for a nonlinear nanomechanical resonator coupled to a superconducting microwave resonator. The nanomechanical resonator is driven parametrically at twice its resonance frequency, while the superconducting microwave resonator is driven with two tones that differ in frequency by an amount equal to the parametric driving frequency. We show that the semiclassical app...

We investigate theoretically the nonlinear dynamics of the most fundamental component of a bistable coupled oscillator. Under a weak radio frequency excitation, the resonator is parametrically tuned into self-sustained oscillatory regimes. The transfer of electrons from one contact to the other is then mechanically assisted, generating a rectified current. The direction of the rectified current...
متن کاملEnhanced electromechanical coupling of a nanomechanical resonator to coupled superconducting cavities.
We investigate the electromechanical coupling between a nanomechanical resonator and two parametrically coupled superconducting coplanar waveguide cavities that are driven by a two-mode squeezed microwave source. We show that, with the selective coupling of the resonator to the cavity Bogoliubov modes, the radiation-pressure type coupling can be greatly enhanced by several orders of magnitude, ...
