Temperature dependence of a nanomechanical switch

We present the effect of temperature on the switching characteristics of a bistable nonlinear nanomechanical beam. At megahertz-range frequencies, we find that it is possible to controllably change the state of the system between two stable mechanical states defined by the hysteresis brought on by n...
