  1. 1. Diffusion-Induced Nonlinear Dynamics in Carbon Nanomechanical Resonators

    Author : Christin Edblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mass sensing; graphene; stochastic differential equations; diffusion; carbon nanotubes; resonators; nanoelectromechanical systems; equations of motion; nonlinear dynamics; dissipation; Fokker-Planck equation; noise; nonequilibrium dynamics;

    Abstract : The emergence of nanoelectromechanical systems has enabled the development of sensors capable of detecting mass, charge, force, position, and spin with an unprecedented precision. In particular, the low mass, high resonant frequency, and high quality factor of carbon nanomechanical resonators make them ideal for the creation of a high sensitivity mass sensor. READ MORE

  2. 2. Nonlinear dynamics of Josephson Junction Chains and Superconducting Resonators

    Author : Adem Ergül; David B. Haviland; Per Delsing; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Superconductivity; Josephson Junction; SQUID; Superconducting Resonators;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the results of the experimental studies on two kindof Superconducting circuits: one-dimensional Josephson junction chains andsuperconducting coplanar waveguide (CPW) resonators. One-dimensionalJosephson junction chains are constructed by connecting many Superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) in series. READ MORE

  4. 4. Tunable superconducting resonators, subharmonic oscillations and manipulation of microwaves

    Author : Ida-Maria Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; circuit-QED; tunable superconducting resonators; subharmonic oscillations; parametric oscillations; microwave manipulation; frequency down-conversion; driven nonlinear systems; superconducting resonator; SQUID; tunable resonator;

    Abstract : In this thesis I present different types of manipulations of microwave fields using tunable superconducting resonators. A resonator is made tunable by adding one or more superconducting quantum interference devices, SQUIDs. The SQUID consists of a superconducting loop with two Josephson junctions and acts as a tunable nonlinear inductor. READ MORE
