NECESSITY OF RUSSIAN NANOINDENTATION STANDARD BASE DEVELOPMENT

Edward Aslanyan, Peter Krasowski

Abstract

Over the past years a large number of papers have been published on the application of the nanoindentation method. These works describe various aspects of the nanoindentation method and provide a detailed overview of the characteristics of different hardware and software tools implementing this method. However, measurements taken under the same conditions and on the seemingly same samples often provide a significant discrepancy in the results on different instruments functioning according to the same principle. This paper discusses the issues of metrological support for the nanoindentation method in Russia.
