We consider a method to reduce the kinetic energy in a low-order mode of a miniature cantilever. If the cantilever contributes to the capacitance of a driven RF circuit, a force on the cantilever exists due to the electric field energy stored in the capacitance. If this force acts with an appropriate phase shift relative to the motion of the cantilever, it can oppose the velocity of the cantilever, leading to cooling. Such cooling may enable reaching the quantum regime of cantilever motion.
