We report on the first single- and few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoelectromechanical resonators with local electrical gate, and the demonstration of local-gate all-electrical actuation, detection, and tuning of the atomic-layer MoS2 resonators at very high frequency (VHF). These local-gate structures make MoS2 vibrating-channel transistors (VCTs), and facilitate efficient frequency modulation...
This paper aims at the novel approach to establish the equation of the motion of the piezoelectric energy harvester. The energy harvester is composed of three beams, two masses and two joints. Each joint is modeled as a spring and a damper. Since two of the three beams are identical in geometry and deflection, the device is actually a 2-DOF vibration system with 2 natural frequencies. With comparing...
We report experimental investigation of resonant responses of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanomechanical resonators at different temperatures. We observe strong temperature hysteresis in measurements. By examining devices with different geometries under different air pressures, we determine that surface adsorption plays an important role in the observed temperature hysteresis. This opens new possibilities...
We report on experimental study and calibration of temperature coefficient of frequency (TCf) and laser heating effect in two-dimensional (2D) resonators, and through which, a new method for determining thermal expansion coefficient (α) in 2D crystals. We measure the resonance characteristics of the ‘drumhead’ nanomechanical resonators based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) using sensitive laser interferometry...
This digest paper reports on the first high-frequency nanomechanical resonators based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) crystalline flakes freely-suspended on microtrenches (∼13µm wide and 14µm deep) fabricated on flexible substrate, with bendability and stretchability. Through investigations of the device resonances via optical excitation and detection by ultrasensitive laser interferometry, we first...
We report on the experimental calibration of the temperature coefficient of frequency (TCf) in single crystal 6H-silicon carbide (SiC) microdisk resonators based on a smartcut technology. We vary the temperature (T) from −32ºC to 125ºC while monitoring the undriven thermomechanical multimode resonances of the devices using sensitive optical motion detection. Both torsional mode and flexural mode resonances...
This paper proposes a new control strategy for LLC resonant inverter for induction heating appliances. This control strategy is a combination of phase-shift control and time-sharing control technique. The output power is controlled by using the phase-shift control method. Time-sharing control is used to increase the output frequency. With the use of shunt capacitors, the system can operate in soft...
