The indentation-induced growth of silicon nanobelts at 50 degree C.
My group works on a variety of research projects addressing the deformation behavior of materials, the structure and properties of electronic materials, electromechanical interactio of materials. Current focus areas include:
| • | Electrocontact deformation of Sn-based alloys |
| • | Electrothermal deformation of materials |
| • | Size-dependence of mechanical behavior of materials of small volume |
| • | Interaction of stress and diffusion for Li-ions battery applications |
Currently Funded Projects
| • | Collaborative Research: Making Nanostructured Ceramics from Micrometer-Sized Starting Powders (National Science Foundation) |
| • | MRI-R2: Instrument Acquisition: Nanomechanical Systems for in situ Mechanical Characterization of Materials in Application Environments(National Science Foundation) |
| • | Mechanical Property Analysis of Ink Jet Heater Thin Film Materials(Lexmark Incorp. Inc.) |
