Exploration of the Origin of Substrate Effects and Elastic Strain Properties during Thin Film Nanoindentation
(2009-11-18)
In this study, the main goal was to investigate the true origin of an influence of substrate effects during nanoindentation of thin films. The work examined the proper relation between the elastic strain intensities in the ...
Mechanical Properties of Near-Frictionless Hydrogenated Amorphous Carbon Freestanding Thin Films for MEMS Devices
(2008-09-09)
Diamond-Like carbon (DLC) films with a mixture of sp2 and sp3 hybridizations have exhibited excellent properties such as chemical stability, wear resistance, optical transparency and are now widely used as protective ...
