Small, 2020 AbstractThe applicability of nanomechanical devices for computational approaches is reviewed. The focus is on the representation and processing of information based on nanomechanical bits. Several device concepts are discussed ranging from nano‐electromechanical systems in silicon to circuits based on carbon nano‐tube switches, combinations of ...

Nanomechanics of Microtubules [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2002 We have determined the mechanical anisotropy of a single microtubule by simultaneously measuring the Young's and the shear moduli in vitro. This was achieved by elastically deforming the microtubule deposited on a substrate tailored by electron-beam lithography with a tip of an atomic force microscope.

Nanomechanics of graphene [PDF]
National Science Review, 2018 Abstract The super-high strength of single-layer graphene has attracted great interest. In practice, defects resulting from thermodynamics or introduced by fabrication, naturally or artificially, play a pivotal role in the mechanical behaviors of graphene.

Proposal for a Nanomechanical Qubit [PDF]
Physical Review X, 2021 Mechanical oscillators have been demonstrated with very high quality factors over a wide range of frequencies. They also couple to a wide variety of fields and forces, making them ideal as sensors. The realization of a mechanically based quantum bit could therefore provide an important new platform for quantum computation and sensing.

Damping of Nanomechanical Resonators [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2010 We study the transverse oscillatory modes of nanomechanical silicon nitride strings under high tensile stress as a function of geometry and mode index m <= 9. Reproducing all observed resonance frequencies with classical elastic theory we extract the relevant elastic constants.

Suppression of hydrogen invasion into austenitic stainless steel by means of cavitation peening
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 It has been demonstrated in the present paper that compressive residual stress introduced by cavitation peening can prevent hydrogen invasion into surface of austenitic stainless steel JIS SUS316L. The specimen was treated by cavitation peening employing
