A carbon nanotube suspended between superconducting electrodes acts simultaneously as nanomechanical resonator and as a Josephson junction. Its energy-dependent density of states and with that position-dependent critical current further adds to the complexity of the system, as does both mechanical and electronic nonlinearity.
Using parallelized Julia code[1], we numerically solve the coupled differential equation system of the driven (via an ac gate voltage and/or ac current or voltage bias) system for realistic device parameters and characterize the evolving steady state. Specific attention is given to the impact of the Josephson junction behaviour on the mechanical resonance frequency and the vibration amplitude, and on the impact of the carbon nanotube motion on the phase evolution of the junction.
