As the focus in materials science shifts towards designing
materials at the sub-micron scale - the "nanotechnology" revolution
- it becomes increasingly important to characterize the mechanical
properties of thin films and small volumes of material. The
development of of nanoscale probes and ultrasensitive transducers
for force and depth has made such measurements possible.
"Nanoindentation" testing is becoming increasingly used in a wide
variety of research and manufacturing areas, ranging from the
testing of silicon wafers in the electronics industry to the
characterization of hard coatings and other surface treatments for
cutting tools, dental restoratives and other biomedical implants,
and optical components.This book presents a comprehensive and
detailed overview of the field of nanoindentation. The underlying
theory behind the extraction of elastic modulus, hardness and other
properties from the load-displacement data is discussed along with
the various systematic and materials-related corrections involved.
Also covered are the various methods of testing, details of an
international standard for depth-sensing indentation testing, the
significance of surface forces and adhesion details of commercially
available instruments, and sample applications of the technique.
Self-contained, the treatment is aimed at those entering the field,
but by bringing together material scattered widely throughout the
research literature the book will also be a useful reference for
the more experienced researcher.
