TL;DR: The thinnest resonator consists of a single suspended layer of atoms and represents the ultimate limit of two-dimensional nanoelectromechanical systems and is demonstrated down to 8 × 10–4 electrons per root hertz.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of suspended graphene sheets
TL;DR: In this article, the Young's modulus of stacks of graphene sheets suspended over photolithographically defined trenches in silicon dioxide was measured using an atomic force microscope, with measured spring constants scaling as expected with the dimensions of the suspended section, ranging from 1to5N∕m.
Journal ArticleDOI
High quality factor photonic crystal nanobeam cavities
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the design, fabrication, and experimental characterization of high quality factor photonic crystal nanobeam cavities in silicon using a five-hole tapered one-dimensional photonic mirror and precise control of the cavity length.
Journal ArticleDOI
Programmable photonic crystal nanobeam cavities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present dynamically reconfigurable photonic crystal nanobeam cavities, operating at 1550 nm, that can be continuously and reversibly tuned over a 9.5 nm wavelength range.
Journal ArticleDOI
All optical reconfiguration of optomechanical filters
TL;DR: High-speed operation dominated by just optomechanical effects of reconfigurable optical filters is demonstrated, and independent control of mechanical and optical resonances of the authors' structures is demonstrated.
