摘要:

通过测量单电子隧穿电流,在毫开尔文温度下观察到了悬浮碳纳米管的横向振动模式。悬浮的纳米管由附近天线的射频电场无接触地致动;在通过纳米管的时间平均电流中检测机械共振。观察到由于纳米管的弯曲模式而引起的尖锐的栅极可调谐共振,将高达ν_0 = 350 MHz的共振频率与高于Q = 10 ^5的品质因数相结合,远高于先前报道的悬浮碳纳米管共振器的结果。测得的大小和温度依赖性的Q-因子显示出显着的协议与预测的固有阻尼悬浮碳纳米管。通过调节天线上的RF功率,我们发现纳米管谐振器可以很容易地被驱动到非线性状态。

英文摘要:

We have observed the transversal vibration mode of suspended carbon nanotubes at millikelvin temperatures by measuring the single-electron tunneling current. The suspended nanotubes are actuated contact-free by the radio frequency electric field of a nearby antenna; the mechanical resonance is detected in the time-averaged current through the nanotube. Sharp, gate-tuneable resonances due to the bending mode of the nanotube are observed, combining resonance frequencies of up to ν_0 = 350 MHz with quality factors above Q = 10^5, much higher than previously reported results on suspended carbon nanotube resonators. The measured magnitude and temperature dependence of the Q-factor shows a remarkable agreement with the intrinsic damping predicted for a suspended carbon nanotube. By adjusting the RF power on the antenna, we find that the nanotube resonator can easily be driven into the non-linear regime.
