Investigation of elastic properties of single-crystal alpha-Ti using microcantilever beams

Single-crystal α-Ti microcantilevers, with various pre-selected crystal orientations, have been manufactured from a polycrystalline commercially pure Ti sample using a focused ion beam. A nanoindenter was used to conduct microbending tests. Relatively small deflections of ∼500 nm were used to measur...
