In the design of rotary compressor, Helmholtz resonator is always used in the discharge port of cylinder to reduce noise. The effect of Helmholtz resonator on the discharge port is restricted because of the narrow frequency band of Helmholtz resonator. In this paper, multi-Helmholtz resonator on the top-flange is used to reduce the discharge noise of different frequency bands, which does not ch...

We experimentally demonstrate the high-sensitivity optical monitoring of a micromechanical resonator and its cooling by active control. Coating a low-loss mirror upon the resonator, we have built an optomechanical sensor based on a very high-finesse cavity (30 000). We have measured the thermal noise of the resonator with a quantum-limited sensitivity at the 10(-19) m/sqrt[Hz] level, and cooled...

As an important sensing element, the whispering gallery mode resonator (WGMR) parameters seriously affect the resonant micro-optic gyroscope (RMOG) performance. This work proposes an under-coupling resonator to improve the resonator's Q value and to optimize the coupling coefficient to maximize the RMOG's sensitivity. GeO₂-doped silica waveguide-type resonators with different coupling coefficie...

Using a low temperature process flow, a photoresist ashing technique was developed to define nano-gaps for the fabrication of electrostatically transduced RF MEMS. This was performed by shrinking laterally the photoresist to the required dimension in a O2 plasma etch system. Polycrystalline silicon-germanium (poly-SiGe) films replaced poly silicon as the structural layer, while poly germanium w...

In this paper, a high-Q resonator is presented and its structure is in the shape of spiral, hence Complementary Spiral Resonator. The measurement of the complementary spiral resonator itself shows that a higher loaded quality factor is provided as compared to the Double H-Shaped Resonator. The resonator was designed to operate at a frequency of 10 GHz and the phase noise performance of the syst...

Abstract Thin film carbon nanomaterials are widely studied and used as functional, conductive, reflective, sensor coatings. In this work, films of natural graphene-based a sensitive material for gas operating close to room temperature. The structural features the were by scanning electron microscopy Raman spectroscopy. It has been found that deposition on substrates with conductive coatings ind...

The stability condition of a resonator formed by a 900 cone and mirror has been derived using ray tracing techniques. The result showed that this type of resonator is relatively insensitive to mirror misalignment. From this basis, the mirror misalignment tolerance was studied experimentally. Output energy and transverse mode characteristics vs. misalignment were measured, and the results show t...

When a contaminant diffuses on the surface of a nanomechanical resonator, the motions of the two become correlated. Despite being a high-order effect in the resonator-particle coupling, such correlations affect the system dynamics by inducing dissipation of the resonator energy. Here, we consider this diffusion-induced dissipation in the cases of multiple particles adsorbed on carbon nanotube a...

An investigation of the effect of resonator dimensions on nonlinear standing waves in shaped resonators is conducted. Simple forms of the shear viscosity term in the momentum equations are developed for an axisymmetric (2D) resonator and a low aspect ratio rectangular (3D) resonator. The cross sections of the resonators are exponentially expanded and the one-dimensional wave equations are solve...

We report on electron spin resonance measurements of phosphorus donors localized in a 200  μm^{2} area below the inductive wire of a lumped element superconducting resonator. By combining quantum limited parametric amplification with a low impedance microwave resonator design, we are able to detect around 2×10^{4} spins with a signal-to-noise ratio of 1 in a single shot. The 150 Hz coupling str...
