Clamp-Tapering Increases the Quality Factor of Stressed Nanobeams
Abstract
Stressed nanomechanical resonators are known to have exceptionally high quality factors (Q) due to the dilution of intrinsic dissipation by stress. Typically, the amount of dissipation dilution and thus the resonator Q is limited by the high mode curvature region near the clamps. Here we study the effect of clamp geometry on the Q of nanobeams made of high-stress Si3N4. We find that tapering the beam near the clamps, thus locally increasing the...
