Deformation and Yield of Polymer Thin Films in Confined Geometries
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2019)Polymer thin film mechanics represents a hugely promising field of research. Due to their versatility and ease of fabrication, polymer films and coatings rank among the most ubiquitous systems in all of nanotechnology. The ... -
Mechanical Characterisation of Printed Nanosheet Network Thin Films
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2024)The response of materials to applied stress and the resulting deformation is a fundamental cornerstone of condensed matter physics and materials research. From exciting new prospects such as the conductive nanosheet ... -
Pressure Dependent Mechanical Properties of Thin Films under Uniaxial Strain via the Layer Compression Test
(2023)Amorphous materials can exhibit strong nonlinear mechanical properties in comparison to crystalline metals and ceramics, largely due to their non equilibrium state which depends on the means of sample preparation history. ...
