摘要: We present in situ indentation a transmission electron microscope on Al-TiN multilayers with individual layer thicknesses of 50 nm and 2.7 nm to explore the effect length scales plastic co-deformability metal ceramic. At 50 nm, plasticity was confined Al layers brittle fracture TiN layers. 5 nm below, cracking suppressed co-deformation evident both The microscopy (TEM) straining results demonstrate profound size enhancing nanoscale metal-ceramic multilayers, as well direct validation ex 3-D elastic–plastic deformation models.
