Algorithms for Dynamic Hardness Measurements by Scratch Testing in the Submicron and Nanometer Scale

Article Preview

Abstract:

The automatic scratch geometrical parameters analysis algorithms based on the images obtained by scanning probe microscopy have been developed. We provide a description of the technique to determine the contact area and the scratch volume with and without account of the pile-ups. The developed algorithms are applied to measure the dynamic hardness by sclerometry on the submicron and nanometer scale.
