报告简介：

Mechanical information processing conjures up images of 19th century automatons outfitted with gears and levers. It is, however, a thriving research area that has grown alongside the field of electron-based information processing, both of which benefitting from progress in micro and nanofabrication. In this context, nanomechanical resonators have been employed as antennas, filter banks, mixers, oscillators, modulators, non-volatile memory devices, and logic circuits, thereby demonstrating their usefulness as building blocks for signal processors. In this presentation, I will introduce our research on mechanical information encoding based on graphene nanomechanical resonators. The latter can be pictured as atomically thin drumheads with resonant frequencies ranging from one megahertz to hundreds of megahertz. The first part of the presentation will be about our work on graphene nonlinear parametric resonators. These mesoscopic vibrational systems host up to 5 phase states. I will describe how we select these states with a coherent driving force that lifts their degeneracy and how we control them with a gate voltage. The second part will be about our work on graphene nanomechanical video receivers. We encode digitally modulated video signals in the vibrations of graphene resonators and transfer this encoding from the vibrations to an optical field. We find that the digital bit streams we employ to drive vibrations are exquisitely sensitive to the phase of vibrations and can be employed to characterize nanomechanical nonlinearities. Overall, I will propose that useful information can be encoded in graphene nanomechanical vibrations in several interesting and playful ways.
