7 Micropillars (eg. milled using FIB or any etching techniques) – Compression of micropillars for stress-strain curves and determining yield strength, loading modulus, fracture strength (in case of brittle materials), compressive strength, etc.
8
9 * Microcantilevers (eg. milled using FIB or any etching techniques) – Bend tests on microcantilevers for determining fracture toughness, critical energy release rate, study interfacial adhesion of thin films and multilayers, etc.
10 * Time dependent properties (in both indentation and micropillar compression): Creep, strain rate sensitivity and stress relaxation. Transient creep exponents, relaxation time constants, activation volumes and strain rate sensitivity exponents can be determined.
11
12 * Low cycle fatigue tests in indentation, micropillar compression and microcantilever bending
13 * Scratch tests – nanoscale wear tests
14 * Sinus mode indents: For studying viscoelastic properties of polymers, studying change in mechanical properties of multilayers and functionally graded materials as a function of indentation depths
15
16 * Repeated impact tests – delamination of delamination behaviour of films and coatings
