Nanoindentation has become ubiquitous for the measurement of mechanical properties at ever-decreasing scales of interest, including some studies that have explored the atomic-level origins of ...

Nanoindentation is a powerful technique used to measure the mechanical properties of materials at the nanoscale. It involves pressing a hard tip, typically made of diamond, into the surface of a ...

Instrumented indentation, or nanoindentation, is an important technique used for measuring the mechanical properties of materials, and can be conducted in situ even on the circuit board itself. This ...

Choice of indenter depends on the nature of the specimen. The most commonly used indenter shape is the three-sided Berkovich pyramidal indenter. This is preferred for nanoindentation work over the ...

Scientists uncovered rare hexagonal silicon forms (2H, 4H, 6H) created by stress and heat, challenging assumptions about this key electronic material.

Nanoindentation is a method of measurement of the mechanical properties of small volumes of materials using an instrumented indentation technique. Elastic modulus, hardness, fracture toughness, creep ...

Nanoindentation is a type of mechanical indentation testing that is performed on small areas. Indentation is one of the most frequent methods for determining a material's mechanical characteristics.

Here, we focus on the SAC 305 solder alloy (96.5% tin, 3% silver, and 0.5% copper) due to its prevalent utilization in electronic packaging. First, we demonstrate the use of nanoindentation to measure ...

The team led by Zhang Shouchun, a researcher at the Institute of Coal Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made ...

The nanoindentation tests were conducted on the samples with the help of a diamond fluid cell Berkovich probe. The test conditions were uniform, consisting of a feedback mode that was load ...

This course is intended for current nanoindentation users who want to gain the experience and knowledge required to extract ...
