The lower the dielectric constant, the better the electrical separation will ... Oliver, W.C. and Pharr, G.M., “An Improved Technique for Determining Hardness and Elastic Modulus Using Load and ...

The load is then held constant for a set duration to allow for any time ... The two primary properties derived from nanoindentation are hardness and elastic modulus. Hardness is a measure of a ...

Elastic modulus, hardness, fracture toughness ... results in a proportional increase in the contact radius and so the mean contact pressure becomes constant (ignoring any strain hardening effects).

(Nanowerk News) A group of scientists from Osaka University, in cooperation with Kaneka Corporation, evaluated the interplanar bond strength of graphene by measuring the elastic constant of graphite, ...
