In-situ elevated temperature nano-indentation

原位高温纳米压痕：纳米压痕已经彻底改变了材料机械性能的表征。它允许在纳米尺度上探测弹性、塑性和开裂响应。该项目将提供最先进的hyysitron纳米压头，配置允许等温高温操作（高达650摄氏度）。该单位将是澳大利亚唯一具有这种能力的单位，也是全球少数可用的单位之一。温度是材料加工中最重要的参数。该设施将使组装团队成为世界上第一个将该技术应用于新材料开发的团队之一，该材料具有优越的加工性能和增强的使用性能。

In-situ elevated temperature nano-indentation: Nano-indentation has revolutionised the characterisation of the mechanical properties of materials. It permits the elastic, plastic and cracking response to be probed at the nano-scale. This project will provide a state-of-the-art Hysitron nano-indenter configured to permit isothermal elevated temperature operation (up to 650 degrees Celsius). The unit will be the only one in Australia with this capability and amongst the few available globally. Temperature is the single most important parameter in material processing. This facility will permit the assembled team to be among the first in the world to apply this technique to the development of new materials with superior processing performance in addition to enhanced behaviour in service.
