In situ nano-compression testing of irradiated copper
Increasing demand for energy and reduction of carbon dioxide emissions has revived interest in nuclear energy. Designing materials for radiation environments necessitates a fundamental understanding of how radiation-induced defects alter mechanical properties. Ion beams create radiation damage efficiently without material activation, but their limited penetration depth requires small-scale test...
متن کاملFabrication and Nanocompression Testing of Aligned Carbon-Nanotube-Polymer Nanocomposites
The exceptional electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have motivated extensive research on their manufacturing and applications. At bulk scales, there is particular interest in property enhancements by adding CNTs to polymers to make composite materials. Most work on CNT-based composites presented in the literature to date has focused on dispersion of singleo...
متن کاملIn-situ metrology and testing of nanotwinned copper pillars for potential air gap applications

We have performed in-situ nanocompression testing in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) of copper pillars having dimensions of the same order of typical via and line structures used in the semiconductor industry. We show direct evidence that...
متن کاملIn-situ MEMS Testing
Related to the dramatically smaller volume of microelectromecanical systems (MEMS), new methods in testing and qualification are needed. On single crystal silicon (SCSi) based devices, stress and loading in operation introduces defects during the MEMS life time and increases the risk of failure. Reliability studies on potential failure sources have an impact on MEMS design and are essential to ...
متن کاملNuclear Quadrupole Resonance Study of Copper in Electron-Irradiated YBa2Cu30
NQR of Cu in YBa2Cu3O ö 95 was investigated before and after low-temperature electron irradi ation as well as after annealing at several distinct temperatures up to 440 K. Irradiation with 2.76 MeV electrons (fluence (f)t = 2.2 ■ 1023 e_/m2) decreased the critical temperature Tc from 91.8 K to 89.5 K. The NQR spectra indicate that the e~ irradiation displaces so-called 0(4) atoms in the Cu-O c...
