Nanomechanical Characterization of Indium Nano/Microwires

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Nanomechanical properties of indium nanowires like structures fabricated on quartz substrate by trench template technique, measured using nanoindentation. The hardness and elastic modulus of wires were measured and compared with the values of indium thin film. Di...
