High-quality nanomechanical resonators with built-in piezoelectricity (IMAGE)
Caption
The image shows an illustration of a triangline nanomechanical resonator realized in a piezoelectric material. The central part of the resonator is shaped like a triangle that moves up and down and at the same time acts as a mirror to reflect a laser beam. The resonator is suspended by thin tethers, which are branched to minimize the loss of mechanical energy from the triangline's movement.
