▎ 摘  要

Bolometers based on graphene have demonstrated outstanding performance with high sensitivity and short response time. In situ adjustment of bolometers is very important in various applications, but it is still difficult to implement in many systems. Here we propose a gate-tunable bolometer based on two strongly coupled graphene nanomechanical resonators. Both resonators are exposed to the same light field, and we can measure the properties of one bolometer by directly tracking the resonance frequency shifts, and indirectly measure the other bolometer through mechanical coupling. We find that the sensitivity and the response bandwidth of both bolometers can be independently adjusted by tuning the corresponding gate voltages. Moreover, the properties of the indirectly measured bolometer show a dependence on the coupling between the two resonators, with other parameters being fixed. Our method has the potential to optimize the design of large-scale bolometer arrays, and open new horizons in infrared/terahertz astronomy and
