TL;DR: In this article, a parametric excitation of a repulsive force electrostatic resonator is studied, and a correspondence of the model to Mathieu's Equation is made to prove the existence and location of parametric resonance.
Abstract: In this paper, parametric excitation of a repulsive force electrostatic resonator is studied. A theoretical model is developed and validated by experimental data. A correspondence of the model to Mathieu's Equation is made to prove the existence and location of parametric resonance. The repulsive force creates a combined response that shows parametric and subharmonic resonance when driven at twice its natural frequency. The resonator can achieve large amplitudes of almost 24 μm and can remain dynamically stable while tapping on the electrode. Because the pull-in instability is eliminated, the beam bounces off after impact instead of sticking to the electrode. This creates larger, stable trajectories that would not be possible with traditional electrostatic actuation. A large dynamic range is attractive for MEMS resonators that require a large signal-to-noise ratio.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the parametric resonance instability, which potentially triggers the emission of the GWs from axions, when the time evolution of the background field significantly deviates from the harmonic oscillation.
Abstract: It was recently shown that a coherent oscillation of an axion can cause an efficient parametric resonance, leading to a prominent emission of the gravitational waves (GWs). In this paper, conducting the Floquet analysis, we investigate the parametric resonance instability, which potentially triggers the emission of the GWs from axions. Such a resonance instability takes place, when the time evolution of the background field significantly deviates from the harmonic oscillation. Therefore, the resonance instability cannot be described by the Mathieu equation, whose stability/instability chart is well known. In this paper, introducing an explicitly calculable parameter , which can be used to classify different types of the parametric resonance described by the general Hill's equation, we investigate the stability/instability chart for the general Hill's equation. This can also apply to the case where the background oscillation is anharmonic. We show that the flapping resonance instability, which takes place for =O(1), typically leads to the most significant growth of the inhomogeneous modes among the self-resonance instability. We also investigate whether the flapping resonance takes place for the cosine potential or not.
