Therefore a method for obtaining elastic-plastic material data is analyzed and discussed in this paper. It is based on the nanoindentation of a film on a silicon substrate and the modeling of it. Thus it becomes possible to fit specific material models to the indentation experiment. Results are shown for two AlSiCu layers.enMechanical Characterisation of Thin Metal Layers by Modelling of the Nanoindentation Experimentconference paper
