Mechanical Behavior of Undoped n-Type GaAs under the Indentation of Berkovich and Flat-Tip Indenters

In this research, the mechanical behavior of undoped n-type GaAs was investigated by nanoindentation experiments using two types of indenters—Berkovich and flat-tip—with force applied up to 1000 mN. From the measured force-depth curves, an obvious pop-in phenomenon occurred at fo...
