Electronanoindentation: fundamental investigations and applications topiezoelectric thin films by Lawrence Friedman and Christopher MuhlsteinNanoindentation is the work horse of mechanical characterization at the micro- and nano-scale. It is proposed to use electrically conducting indenters to provide independentindentation contact area measurements in situ as well as to investigate coupled electro-mechanical properties of piezoelectric films, including novel applications such as strain-rate sensitivity, fatigue, and application to non-conducting samples via appropriate sample preparation. The proposed research achieves broader impacts via a number of channels. First, the proposed topic is one of great interest across many fields for reasons just mentioned. Second, it is development of new instrumentation and measurement techniques. Third, it enhances existing NSF-supported infrastructure. Fourth, it involves collaboration with researchers in related disciplines. Fifth, it will provide research opportunities and exposure for traditionally underrepresented groups in Science and Engineering. Sixth, it will directly enhance the education of Penn State undergraduateand graduate students.

电子压痕：Lawrence Friedman和Christopher Muhlstein在压电薄膜方面的基础研究和应用纳米压痕是微米和纳米尺度的机械表征的主要工作。建议使用导电压头来提供独立的现场压痕接触面积测量，并研究压电薄膜的机电耦合特性，包括新的应用，如应变率灵敏度、疲劳，以及通过适当的样品制备应用于非导电样品。拟议的研究通过多个渠道实现了更广泛的影响。首先，由于刚才提到的原因，拟议的主题引起了许多领域的极大兴趣。第二，是新仪器和测量技术的发展。第三，它加强了现有的NSF支持的基础设施。第四，它涉及与相关学科的研究人员的合作。第五，它将为科学和工程领域传统上代表性较低的群体提供研究机会和曝光率。第六，它将直接加强宾夕法尼亚州立大学本科生和研究生的教育。
