Summary:
Researchers have engineered string-like resonators capable of vibrating longer at ambient temperature
than any previously known solid-state object -- approaching what is currently only achievable near absolute zero temperatures.
Their study pushes the edge of nanotechnology and machine learning to make some of the world's most sensitive mechanical sensors.

It might not have the stability or tempco of a quartz crystal. The SiN
string will surely have a different thermal expansion factor than the
silicon substrate.
It would be cool to have a worldwide (or even in space) array of
thousands of 3-axis gravitational wave detectors, instead of just
three single-axis sites. We could image g-waves at high resolution.
