DESCRIPTION:
good, concise instructive nanoindentation book David Munoz-Paniagua I did my PhD in the Nanoindentation area and I find this book really helpful for reviewing basic concepts and gaining basic knowledge on the subject. For more in-depth approach see "Contact, Adhesion and Rupture of Elastic Solids" by Daniel Maugis. Kevin said Good. The contents are of great help in research, specially if you are in the R&D field and are not acquainted with the methods to do nanoindentation
This book presents the underlying theory behind the extraction of elastic modulus and hardness from the load-displacement data, discusses the significance of surface forces and adhesion, delineates the various corrections involved, and describes the methods of operation of the available instruments. The development of of nanoscale probes and ultrasensitive transducers for force and depth has made such measurements possible, and there are several commercially available instruments for making them. Such "nanoindentation" measurement devices are used in a wide variety of research and manufacturing areas, ranging from the fabrication and testing of silicon wafers in the electronics industry to the testing of hard coatings for cutting tools. Self-contained, the treatment is aimed at those entering the field, but by bringing together material scattered widely throughout the research literature it should also provide a useful reference for those working in the field.. 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
… Also covered are the various methods of testing, details of an international standard for depth-sensing … . 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." (Zeitschrift für Kristallographie, Issue 9-10, 2005). From the reviews: "This book presents a comprehensive and detailed overview of the field of nanoindentation
