Elasticity of Cross-Linked Titania Nanocrystal Assemblies Probed by AFM-Bulge Tests

Elasticity of Cross-Linked Titania Nanocrystal Assemblies Probed by AFM-Bulge Tests

In order to enable advanced technological applications of nanocrystal composites, e.g., as functional coatings and layers in flexible optics and electronics, it is necessary to understand and control their mechanical properties. The objective of this study was to show how the elasticity of such comp...
