A new light on nanomechanical dissipation

A new light on nanomechanical dissipation

Researchers from laboratory Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques have shown that crystalline nanomechanical resonators are affected by surface fluctuation mechanisms that are ubiquitous in condensed matter. High-Q nanomechanical resonators are becoming central with the...
New quantum devices are revolutionizing infrared detection

New quantum devices are revolutionizing infrared detection

A research team of the Materials and Quantum Phenomena laboratory (University Paris Diderot/CNRS) has developed a new class of far-infrared sensitive detectors that are very fast and operate at room temperature. This scientific breakthrough will accelerate the use of...
Opto-mechanical THz Wave Detector

Opto-mechanical THz Wave Detector

A collaboration between the QUAD and DON teams has resulted in the development of a new, high-speed device for detecting Terahertz waves. This sensor combines concepts from electromagnetics and nano-optomechanics. While visible light plays a prominent role in our...
