Elastic strain engineering for ultralow mechanical dissipation

Abstract

Extreme stresses can be produced in nanoscale structures, a feature which has been used to realize enhanced materials properties, such as the high mobility of silicon in modern transistors. Here we show how nanoscale stress... [ view full abstract ]
