Nanometer-resolved mechanical properties around GaN crystal surface steps

Nanometer-resolved mechanical properties around GaN crystal surface steps

The mechanical properties of surfaces and nanostructures deviate from their bulk counterparts due to surface stress and reduced dimensionality. Experimental indentation-based techniques present the challenge of measuring these effects, while avoiding artifacts caused by the measurement technique its...
