The quest for realizing and manipulating ever smaller man-made movable structures and
dynamical machines has spurred tremendous endeavors, led to important discoveries, and …

Nanomechanics has brought mesoscopic physics into the world of vibrations. Because
nanomechanical systems are small, fluctuations are significant, the vibrations already …

Quantum decoherence plays a pivotal role in the dynamical description of the quantum-to-
classical transition and is the main impediment to the realization of devices for quantum …

A pressing need to develop low‐cost, environmentally friendly, and sensitive sensors has
arisen with the advent of the always‐connected paradigm of the internet‐of‐things (IoT). In …

Frequency stability is key to the performance of nanoresonators. This stability is thought to
reach a limit with the resonator's ability to resolve thermally induced vibrations. Although …

In force sensing, optomechanics, and quantum motion experiments, it is typically
advantageous to create lightweight, compliant mechanical elements with the lowest possible …

The dynamics of nonlinear systems qualitatively change depending on their parameters,
which is called bifurcation. A quantum-mechanical nonlinear oscillator can yield a quantum …

Electron spins in solid-state systems offer the promise of spin-based information processing
devices. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), an all-carbon one-dimensional …

Levitated optomechanics is showing potential for precise force measurements. Here, we
report a case study to show experimentally the capacity of such a force sensor, using an …

We show that nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond interfaced with a suspended
carbon nanotube carrying a dc current can facilitate a spin-nanomechanical hybrid device …
