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

The field of nanoscale magnetic resonance imaging (NanoMRI) was started 30 years ago. It
was motivated by the desire to image single molecules and molecular assemblies, such as …

We present a novel method for the quantitative analysis of mixtures of semivolatile chemical
compounds. For the first time, thermal desorption is integrated directly with …

We demonstrate that soft-clamped silicon nitride strings with a large aspect ratio can be
operated at mK temperatures. The quality factors (Q) of two measured devices show …

Nanomechanical resonators with ultra-high quality factors have become a central element in
fundamental research, enabling measurements below the standard quantum limit and the …

We demonstrate parametric coupling between two modes of a silicon nitride membrane. We
achieve the coupling by applying an oscillating voltage to a sharp metal tip that approaches …

Understanding thermodynamical measurement noise is of central importance for electrical
and optical precision measurements from mass-fabricated semiconductor sensors, where …

Quantum circuits show unprecedented sensitivity to external fluctuations compared to their
classical counterparts, and it can take as little as a single atomic defect somewhere in a mm …

Nanoscale magnetic resonance imaging (NanoMRI) is an active area of applied research
with potential applications in structural biology and quantum engineering. The success of …

Long and thin scanning force cantilevers are sensitive to small forces, but also vulnerable to
detrimental noncontact interactions. Here we present an experiment with a cantilever whose …
