Abstract Recent work [1-5] has suggested that a lucrative future for shape memory materials such as NiTi is in the area of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). To design MEMS and predict their behavior during service, we must have quantitative information on the mechanical properties of scaled down NiTi materials. One way of obtaining the mechanical properties of scaled down materials is with unique MEMS testing fixtures. Although this approach is favorably analogous to macroscopic testing techniques it is not always feasible owing to the difficulty of handling the microscopic samples. Many smart material actuators are deposited thin films [1-5] and separating the films from their substrate and subsequently testing them is beyond our current MEMS processing and handling tools. An alternative method to quantify the properties of microscale materials is through micro-indentation, which has been previously applied to NiTi polycrystals [6]. Although micro-indentation is simple to accomplish, interpretation and quantification of the results is not as straightforward, as will be demonstrated in this work.

AbstractBiominerals such as the nacre of shells, spicules of sea urchins, teeth, and bones are inorganic-organic hybrids that have highly controlled hierarchical and complex structures. These structures are formed in mild conditions, and the processes are controlled by macromolecular templates of proteins, peptides, and polysaccharides. Materials scientists can obtain ideas from the structures, properties, and formation processes of biominerals for use in creating synthetic, biomimetic materials. This article highlights bioinspired synthetic approaches to the development of organic/CaCO3 hybrids using macromolecular templates. These hybrids have oriented, patterned, and 3D complex structures, as well as thin films with smooth surfaces. The structures are formed by templating synthetic and semisynthetic macromolecules. These materials have great potential for new functional materials.
