Elasticity of Cartilage Measured by Large Strain, Non-hertzian Afm Nanoindentation
INTRODUCTION The raster scanning and nanoindentation capabilities of the AFM are exploited in force spectroscopy, a valuable quantitative technique for mapping the elastic properties of materials down to nanometer resolution. When the probe is of well-defined geometry and the indentation behavior can be represented by established contact mechanics models, the force maps can be transformed to el...
متن کاملMechanical characterization of polymers on a nanoscale through AFM nanoindentation: A theoretical study on the time-dependent viscoelastic recovery
The temperature-dependent indent recovery of polymer materials was measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM). A numerical model based on the Boussinesq equations was developed to simulate the viscoelastic indent recovery. Viscoelastic solution of stress and displacement is obtained by using the corresponding principle between elasticity and viscoelasticity. The numerical solution provides resul...
متن کاملAdhesive and Nonadhesive, Large Strain AFM Indentation of Rubber-like Materials
Atomic force microscopy is an established technique for probing the local elastic properties of materials at submicron scales. In some cases, linear elastic contact theories based on Hertzian and adhesive contact mechanics suffice to model the indentation process. However, at the large strains that are common in many nanoindentation experiments, the linear models become invalid. A force-indenta...
متن کاملEffect of bias voltage on structural and mechanical characteristics of diamond-like carbon thin film applied by ion beam deposition
This study, investigates the effect of bias voltage on structural changes of diamond-like carbon thin film created by ion beam deposition is investigated. For this purpose, the bias voltage in the values of 0 V, -50 V, -100 V and -150 V on the AA5083 aluminum alloy was considered. Raman spectroscopy was used to evaluate structural. Influence of the bias voltage on the thickness and roughness of...
متن کاملRobust strategies for automated AFM force curve analysis--I. Non-adhesive indentation of soft, inhomogeneous materials.
The atomic force microscope (AFM) has found wide applicability as a nanoindentation tool to measure local elastic properties of soft materials. An automated approach to the processing of AFM indentation data, namely, the extraction of Young's modulus, is essential to realizing the high-throughput potential of the instrument as an elasticity probe for typical soft materials that exhibit inhomoge...
