Abstract

A nanofield-effect transistor (nano-FET) is coupled to a massive piezoelectricity based electromechanical resonator integrated with a parametric amplifier. The mechanical parametric amplifier can enhance the resonator’s displacement and the resulting electrical signal is further amplified by the nano-FET. This hybrid amplification scheme yields an increase in the mechanical displacement signal by 70 dB resulting in a force sensitivity of 200 aN Hz−1/2 at 3 K. The mechanical parametric amplifier can also squeeze the displacement noise in one oscillation phase by 5 dB enabling a factor of 4 reduction in the thermomechanical noise force level.
