TLDR
In this article, it was shown that phonons can be coherently transferred between two nanomechanical resonators, and the technique of controlling the coupling between nanoscale oscillators using a piezoelectric transducer is useful for manipulating classical oscillations, but if extended to the quantum regime it could also enable entanglement of macroscopic mechanical objects.Abstract:
It is now shown that phonons can be coherently transferred between two nanomechanical resonators, it is now shown. The technique of controlling the coupling between nanoscale oscillators using a piezoelectric transducer is useful for manipulating classical oscillations, but if extended to the quantum regime it could also enable entanglement of macroscopic mechanical objects.read more

Spin Detection via Parametric Frequency Conversion in a Membrane Resonator
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed to use two coupled ultracoherent resonator modes on a magnetic scanning tip for the detection of small nuclear spin ensembles, where the non-degenerate modes result from coupled degenerate resonators, and the parametric conversion is mediated by periodic inversions of the nuclear spins in the presence of a magnetic scanner.

Coherent interplay between surface acoustic waves and coupled mechanical resonators: transition from plasmon-like to surface mediated coupling
Laetitia Raguin,Olivier Gaiffe,Roland Salut,Jean-Marc Cote,Valérie Soumann,Vincent Laude,Abdelkrim Khelif,Sarah Benchabane +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed an approach based on the interplay between a pair of localized mechanical resonators and travelling surface acoustic waves (SAW) for coherent control of mechanical vibration at a resonator level, and reciprocally for manipulating SAW propagation using sub-wavelength elements.
