Abstract

A method for the nanoidentation of resistance coatings 1–100 nm thick and intended for use in microelectromechanical systems is proposed on the basis of atomic-force microscopy (AFM). The elastic moduli of the coatings are determined using three models of contact: the Hertz model, the Johnson-Kendall-Roberts model and the Makushkin model, with and without allowance for the influence of a solid substrate.
