The present paper describes research on the mechanical properties and related dislocation structure of CdTe, a II-VI semiconductor compound with a wide range of uses in electrical and optical devices. At room temperature CdTe exhibits little plasticity and at the same time relatively low strength and hardness. The mechanical behavior of CdTe was examined at elevated temperatures with the goal of understanding plastic flow in this material and eventually improving the room temperature properties. Several samples of single crystal CdTe of identical size and crystallographic orientation were deformed in compression at 300°C to various levels of total strain. A resolved shear stress vs. compressive glide strain curve (Figure la) was derived from the results of the tests and the knowledge of the sample orientation.

AbstractThis paper summarises our recent cyclic nanoindentation experiment studies on a range of materials including single crystal and nanocrystalline copper, single crystal aluminium and bulk metallic glasses with different glass transition temperatures. The unloading and reloading processes of the nanoindentation curves have been analysed. The reverse plasticity will be discussed in the context of plastic deformation mechanisms involved. The effect of loading rates on the mechanical properties of materials upon cyclic loading will also be discussed.

Abstract In order to obtain ultra-smooth surfaces of single-crystal silicon in ultra-precision machining, an accurate study of the deformation mechanism, mechanical properties, and the effect of oxide film under load is required. The mechanical properties of single-crystal silicon and the phase transition after nanoindentation experiments are investigated by nanoindentation and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. It is found that pop-in events appear in the theoretical elastic domain of single-crystal silicon due to the presence of oxide films, which directly leads the single crystal silicon from the elastic deformation zone into the plastic deformation zone. In addition, the mechanical properties of single-crystal silicon are more accurately measured after it has entered the full plastic deformation.
