Coupling a single spin to mechanical motion is exciting from a fundamental perspective and is also at the heart of applications such as quantum sensing, long-distance spin-spin coupling, and classical and quantum information processing. Previous experiments have observed such coupling in low-frequency mechanical resonators that are mostly confined to the classical regime, such as diamond cantilevers. Here we report the first experimental demonstration of spin-mechanical coupling with a high-frequency resonator. We achieve this all-electrically on a fully suspended carbon nanotube device. A new mechanism gives rise to this coupling, which stems from spin-orbit coupling, and it is not mediated by strain. We observe both resonant and off-resonant coupling as a shift and broadening of the electron dipole spin resonance, respectively. We develop a complete theoretical model taking into account the tensor form of the coupling and non-linearity in the motion. Our results advance spin-mechanical platforms to an uncharted regime, with promising applications ranging from the operation of fully quantum engines to the demonstration of macroscopic superpositions, to quantum simulators.

Keywords: Spin qubit; Nano-mechanical resonator; Spin mechanical coupling; Carbon nanotube
