Effect of scaling down the nanoelectromechanical amplifier. (a) Trend of change in bandwidth by increase in bias current for different loads (solid lines), and the effect of scaling on the bandwidth (dashed line for S=0.6, and dotted line for S=0.3) due to the increase in effective quality factor. (b) Gain vs. bias current (solid lines) and the effect of scaling on gain (dashed line for S=0.6, and dotted line for S=0.3) (c) Effective quality factor achieved at lower power as a results of scaling.
