Here we demonstrate a room temperature, cavity-free,\r\nall-electric device reaching this regime at radio frequencies, enabled by a\r\nmechanically compliant parallel-plate capacitor with a nanoscale plate\r\nseparation and an aspect ratio exceeding 1,000. The device has four orders of\r\nmagnitude lower insertion loss than a comparable commercial quartz crystal, and\r\nachieves a position imprecision rivaling an optical interferometer. With the\r\nhelp of a back-action isolation scheme, we observe radiative cooling of\r\nmechanical motion by a remote cryogenic load. This work provides a\r\ntechnologically accessible route to high-precision sensing, transduction, and\r\nsignal processing."}],"arxiv":1,"oa":1,"OA_place":"repository","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2407.15314","open_access":"1"}],"day":"24","year":"2024","citation":{"mla":"Puglia, Denise, et al. “Room Temperature, Cavity-Free Capacitive Strong Coupling to Mechanical  Motion.” ArXiv, 2407.15314, doi:10.48550/arXiv.2407.15314.","chicago":"Puglia, Denise, Rachel H Odessey, Peter S.
