Growth of Silicon Nanowire Mechanical Oscillators for Force-Detected Magnetic Resonance Measurements
(University of Waterloo, 2018-01-19)This thesis describes two ways to grow silicon nanowires with the catalyst gold (Au) by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) system. One way to prepare catalyst is drop-casting gold nanoparticles solution, the other is making ... -
Numerical Engineering of Adiabatic Quantum Operations
(University of Waterloo, 2020-01-23)Adiabatic quantum operations are ubiquitous in fields such as quantum information processing, quantum control, and magnetic resonance, where their high fidelity and general robustness renders them an essential tool for ... -
Ultra Low Dissipation Silicon Nanowire Resonator Arrays for Scanning Probe Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2020-01-23)This work describes the fabrication and characterization of silicon nanowire oscillators for use in ultra-high sensitivity force detection. These structures are optimized for use as scanning probes by fabricating ...
