Superior Control and Sensitivity
Proprietary capacitive transducer technology provides exceptional measurement noise floors (75 nN, <0.2 nm), accuracy, and reliability during the nanoindentation process. Electrostatic actuation uses little current, enabling superior drift characteristics that result in faster data acquisition, higher accuracy, and better repeatability.
Quantitative Characterization Capabilities
Bruker has developed a broad suite of complementary characterization techniques to enable powerful nanoscale materials research.
Dynamic Mechanical Analysis: Storage modulus, loss modulus, and tan delta as a function of measurement depth, frequency, and time.
Tribology: Friction Coefficients, scratch resistance, thin film adhesion, and nanoscale wear.
Surface Characterization: In-situ scanning probe microscopy, optical microscopy, and surface mechanical property mapping.
Electrical Characterization: In-situ electrical contact resistance, conductance, phase transformations, and material deformation behavior.
Environmental Control: Nanomechanical and nanotribological characterization at high temperatures and in customizable gaseous atmospheres.
