Nanoindentor (UFCH24) - new Pro-NanoEnviCz II
The Hysitron TI 980 nanoindenter provides rapid, multi-sample, and multi-technique automated testing capabilities for high-throughput characterization. It includes quantitative nanoscale-to-microscale indentation, nano-scratch, nano-wear, high-resolution in-situ scanning probe microscopy (SPM) imaging, dynamic nanoindentation, and high-speed mechanical property mapping; providing a comprehensive understanding of material behavior at the nanoscale. The equipment enables: 1. quantitative determination of localized mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, hardness, creep, stress relaxation, and fracture toughness for a wide variety of materials, 2. continuous measurement of elastic-plastic and viscoelastic properties as a function of indentation depth, frequency, and time, 3. to obtain comprehensive nanomechanical property maps and property distribution statistics in a record amount of time.
