Strong negative nonlinear friction from induced two-phonon processes in vibrational systems

Negative linear friction is known to lead to self-sustained vibrations in many systems. Here, the authors show that when nonlinear negative friction in an electromechanical oscillator becomes larger than its positive linear counterpart such self-sustained vibrations require activation.
