Sentences with phrase «nanomechanical oscillators»

Over the last decade, strained nanomechanical oscillators have emerged as an important paradigm owing to their anomalously high quality factors; however, this trend is not as much a design choice as an artifact of large stresses naturally produced at the nanoscale.

Among the results he has achieved are demonstrations of the quantum teleportation between material objects, a quantum memory for light, an optical detection of radio waves using a nanomechanical oscillator, a quantum optical interface with a one dimensional atomic crystal, and measurement of motion not restricted by the Heisenberg uncertainty.

Not exact matches

In this new study, the team took advantage of graphene's mechanical «stretchability» to tune the output frequency of their custom oscillator, creating a nanomechanical version of an electronic component known as a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO).
