Microscale bending plasticity and fracture behavior of amorphous aluminum oxide films
Nidhin George Mathews, Erkka J. Frankberg, Vivek Devulapalli +12
Recent work has demonstrated microscale compressive plasticity in pulse laser deposited (PLD) amorphous alumina (a-Al2O3). This work explores microscale bending plasticity and frac…
