Nanoindentation is a measurement technique which is important in measuring Young’s modulus and hardness in thin films and any other situations involving the measurement of limited amounts of material.

In hard disk drives, digital information is stored and retrieved magnetically by a “read head” that flies over the disk within tens of nanometers of its surface. Figure 1 is a photograph of a read ...

Polymer materials have become increasingly important across various industrial applications due to their distinctive physical and chemical properties. Among these, Young's modulus is a key mechanical ...
