Submicrosecond-timescale readout of carbon nanotube mechanical motion

H. B. Meerwaldt, S. R. Johnston, and H. S. J. van der Zant et al.

We report fast readout of the motion of a carbon nanotube mechanical resonator. A close-proximity high electron mobility transistor amplifier is used to increase the bandwidth of the measurement of nanotube displacements from the kHz to the MHz regime. Using an electrical detection scheme with the ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 103, 053121 (2013)] published Fri Aug 02, 2013.
