By\r\nmeasuring the resonance frequencies of the system, we show that the comb-drive actuator and the\r\nsilicon beam behave as two strongly coupled resonators. Interestingly, the effective coupling rate\r\n(1.5 MHz) is tunable with the comb-drive actuator (10%) as well as with a side-gate (10%)\r\nplaced close to the silicon beam. In contrast, the effective spring constant of the system is insensitive\r\nto either of them and changes only by 60.5%. Finally, we show that the comb-drive actuator\r\ncan be used to switch between different coupling rates with a frequency of at least 10 kHz.\r\n","lang":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.04406"}]}
