Dynamic tuning of terahertz atomic lattice vibration via cross-scale mode coupling to nanomechanical resonance in WSe2 membranes by Bo Xu, Zejuan Zhang, Jiaze Qin, Jiaqi Wu, Luming Wang, Jiankai Zhu, Chenyin Jiao, Wanli Zhang, Juan Xia, Zenghui Wang

“…Using a custom-built setup capable of simultaneously detecting Raman and motional signals, we accomplish cross-scale mode coupling between the THz crystal phonon and MHz structural vibration, achieving GHz frequency tuning in the atomic lattice modes with a dynamic gauge factor of 61.9, the best among all 2D crystals reported to date. Our findings show that such 2D NEMS offer great promises for exploring cross-scale physics in atomically-thin semiconductors.…”
