MRI: Acquisition of Mechanical Properties Microprobe: Nano Indenter II

9871355卢卡斯机械性能微探针（MPM）系统（Nano Indenterfi II）的收购主要用于支持研究生教育和培训，并进行材料科学和工程研究。 MPM为学院内的许多工程研究项目提供了测试和分析的新维度，特别是在材料科学和电气工程系以及整个大学。 自然科学学院正在进行的研究也将受益于使用纳米压痕仪。 这种纳米探测器将是密歇根州立大学的首个同类探测器。 许多参与材料表征和纳米力学应力分析的不同研究小组将从MPM的收购中受益匪浅。 这对于表征材料中的小体积、薄膜和界面尤其如此。 一些研究计划将使用MPM来确定薄膜和纳米材料的硬度、模量和断裂能。

9871355LucasThe acquisition of the mechanical properties microprobe (MPM) system (Nano Indenterfi II) is to be used primarily to support graduate education and training and conduct research in materials science and engineering. The MPM provides new dimensions in testing and analysis for many engineering research programs within the college, particularly in the Materials Science and the Electrical Engineering Departments, and the university at large. Ongoing research in the College of Natural Science will also benefit from having access to the nanoindenter. The naniondenter will be a first of its kind on site of Michigan State University. Many diverse research groups that are involved in the characterization of materials and in nanomechanical stress analysis will benefit significantly from the acquisition of the MPM. This is especially the case for characterization of the small-volumes, thin films and interfaces in materials. Some research programs will use the MPM to determine the hardness, modulus and fracture energy of thin films and nanolayered materials.
