Mechanical properties such as Young's modulus and hardness of thin film in coated steel are difficult to determine by nano-indentation from the conventional analysis using the load-displacement curve. Therefore, an analysis of the nano-indentation loading curve was used to determine the Young's modulus, hardness and strain hardening exponent. A new method is recently being developed for plasticity properties of materials from nano-indentation. Elastic modulus of the thin films shows relatively small influence whereas yield strength and strain hardening are found to have significant effect on measured data. The load-displacement behavior of material tested with a Berkovich indenter and nano-indentation continuous stiffness method is used to measure the modulus and hardness through thin films.

Micro/nano patterns for optical concentration and diffusion have been studied in the various fields such as displays, optics, and sensors. Conventional micro patterns were continuous and linear shapes due to using linear-type light sources, however, recently non-continuous patterns have been applied as point sources are used for dot-type light sources such as LEDs and OLEDs. In this study, a hybrid machining technology combining an indentation machining method and an AAO process was developed for manufacturing the non-continuous micro patterns having nano patterns. First, mirror-like surfaces ($R_a<20nm$) of pure Aluminum substrates were obtained by optimizing cutting conditions. Then, The letter of 'K' consisting of the arrays of the micro patterns was manufactured by the indentation machining method which has a similar principle to indentation hardness testing. Finally, nano patterns were machined by AAO process on the micro patterns. Conclusively, a specific letter having nano-micro hybrid patterns was manufactured in this study.

Recently there has been a great world-wide interest in developing and characterizing new nano-structured materials. These newly developed materials are often prepared in limited quantities and shapes unsuitable for the extensive mechanical testing. The development of depth sensing indentation methods have introduced the advantage of load and depth measurement during the indentation cycle. In the present work, ZnO thin films are prepared on Si(111), Si(100) substrates at different temperatures by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) method. Because the potential energy in c-axis is low, the films always show c-axis orientation at the optimized conditions in spite of the different substrates. Thin films are investigated by X-ray diffractometer and Nano indentation equipment. From these measurements it is possible to get elastic modulus and hardness of ZnO thin films on Si substrates.

Mechanical properties such as Young's modulus and hardness of thin film in coated steel are difficult to determine by nano-indentation from the conventional analysis using the load-displacement curve. Therefore, an analysis of the nano-indentation loading-unloading curve was used to determine the Young's modulus, hardness. A new method is recently being developed for elastic-plastic properties of materials from nano-indentation. Elastic modulus of the thin films shows relatively small influence whereas yield strength is found to have significant effect on measured data. The load-displacement curves of material tested with a Berkovich indenter and nano-indentation continuous stiffness method is used to measure the modulus and hardness through thin films, and then these are computed using the analysis procedure. The developed neural networks apply also to obtain reliable mechanical properties.

Recently in the display industry, demands for high-luminance and resolution of display devices have been steadily increasing. Generally, micro linear patterns are applied to an optical film in order to improve its properties of light. However, these patterns are easily viewed to eyes and moire phenomenon can be occurred. Micro random patterns are proposed as a method to solve these problems, increasing light-luminance and light-diffusion. However, conventional pattern manufacturing technologies have long processing times and high costs making it difficult to apply to large area molds. In order to combat this issue, micro-random patterns are formed by using a roll to plate indentation method along with abrasive paper tools composed of AlSiO2, SiC, and diamond grains. Also, forming properties, such as size and fill-factor of random patterns, are analyzed depending on type, mesh of abrasive paper tools, and indentation forces.

The frictional behaviors of Cermets/Cr-Ceramics and Cu-Al coatings of piston ring were investigated. Friction tests were carried out by pin-on-disk test and materials properties of coating layer were analyzed by nano indentation tester. Higher friction coefficient was obtained at harder coating with rougher surface. In case of hard-coating, the scratch depth, width and pile-up height had close relationship with indentation hardness. So the scratch width, depth and pile-up height increases with decreasing friction coefficient. But in case of soft-coating, the friction coefficients are strongly dependent on the morphological characteristics after nano scratching more than indentation hardness.

The light diffusion component spreads the light from one point evenly over a large area. Various types of light diffusion parts such as films and lenses are applied in the high-tech industries such as LCD display devices, lighting devices, and solar energy generation. Among these, a diffuser sheet (Diffuser Sheet) has a function to uniformly distribute the light, and various studies have been conducted to improve its function. The shape of the conventional light diffusion pattern is mainly made of a dot or hemispherical shape. In this study, a rectangular cone-shaped structure having a light diffusion function and an advantage of controlling the angle of refraction of light was fabricated by using a solenoid indentation process. The change in shape of the indentation structure was analyzed.

Molecular dynamic simulations of nano indentation on single-crystal silicon (100) surface were performed using diamond indentor. Silicon substrate and diamond indentor were modeled diamond structure with Tersoff potential model. Phase transformation of silicon, incipient plastic deformation, change of incident temperature distribution are investigated through the change of potential energy distribution, displacement-load diagram, the change of kinetic energy distribution and displacements of silicon atoms. Phase transformation is highly localized and consists of a high-density region surrounding the tip. Axial load linearly increased according to the indenting depth. Number of atoms with high kinetic energy increased at the interface between substrate and indentor tip.

Nano-imprint technology has been vigorously studied by many researchers for it is one of the most promising technologies for manufacturing the pattern with its critical dimension below 100nm. In the nano-imprint technology, nano patterns are transferred on a polymer film and the transferred patterns are used as an etch mask to define the designed patterns on a substrate or a metal layer. To this end, it is important to keep the residual thickness of the imprinted polymer film uniform. In this study, a novel measurement technique to measure the residual thickness of films is proposed based on nanoindentation theory. This technique has advantages of saving time and measuring the residual thickness of highly-localized portions in comparison with other techniques, but has limitation of requiring calibration process.

Nano-indentation and nano-scratch tests were peformed to assess the mechanical and tribological properties of the coating on a commercially available thin-film magnetic recording disk. Surface topography and roughness of the disk was studied using atomic force microscopy. The hardness and elastic modulus data show a peak at an indentation depth equivalent to the thickness of carbon overcoat, indicating strong influence of the coatin $g_strate interaction and the coating surface roughness on the measurements. The variations of surface roughness data were analysed statistically based on the normal probability distribution theories and Weibull cumulative probability theories.es.
