摘要
This work reports the loading rate effect on nanohardness of sapphire. The intrinsic nanoscale contact deformation resistance of sapphire increased with the loading rates following empirical power law dependence with a positive exponent. The results showed a significant enhancement (e.g., similar to 66%) of the nanohardness of sapphire with the increase in loading rates from 10 to 10,000 mu N s(-1). These results were explained mainly in terms of the maximum shear stress generated underneath the nanoindenter, dislocation density and critical resolved shear stress of the sapphire.
