Brooke's Hysitron TI Premier nanoindentation instrument is designed to provide industry-leading quantitative nanomechanical characterization within a compact platform. TI Premier is based on the proven Hysitron technology and provides a wide range of nanoscale mechanical and friction testing techniques. By utilizing TI Premier's multifunctional configuration, accurate measurements of various high-quality studies can be achieved, while providing multiple technology upgrade options to meet your future characterization needs.

The proprietary capacitive sensor technology provides * * measurement noise level (75 nN,<0.2 nm), accuracy, and reliability during nanoindentation testing. Electrostatic drive uses very little current to achieve temperature drift characteristics, thereby accelerating data acquisition speed, achieving higher accuracy and better repeatability.

The five load nanoindentation series tests on silicon (100) demonstrate the superior noise level, performance, and data repeatability of the Hysitron TI Premier nanomechanical testing system in the industry.

Quantitative characterization ability

Brooke has developed a comprehensive set of quantitative characterization techniques to achieve powerful nanoscale material research.

Dynamic mechanics analysis: storage modulus, loss modulus, and loss angle as functions of measurement depth, frequency, and time.

Trilogy: friction coefficient, scratch resistance, film adhesion, and nanoscale wear.

Surface morphology characterization: In situ SPM imaging, optical microscopy observation, and surface mechanical property imaging.

Electrical characteristics: in-situ contact resistance, conductivity, phase transition, and material deformation behavior.

Environmental control: Characterize nanomechanical and nanofrictional properties in high temperature and customizable gaseous environments.

The force displacement curve on fused silica shows the typical response of elastoplastic materials, and after quasi-static nano indentation testing, the residual indentation morphology is shown by in-situ SPM imaging.

A program package that implements specific functions

Brooke's Hysitron TI Premier offers customized functional packages for quasi-static nanoindentation, dynamic characterization, high-temperature characterization, and cross scale testing. The configuration of these packages has been optimized to provide specialized solutions to meet your research and process control requirements.

Quasi static nanoindentation: optimized nanomechanical properties for thin films and non-uniform materials.

Dynamic characteristics: quasi-static and dynamic mechanical properties, which can characterize various materials from ultra soft to ultra hard.

High temperature characteristics: Study mechanical properties and time-dependent deformation behavior based on temperature.

Cross scale testing: Nanoindentation testing at the nanometer and micrometer scales.

NiCoCrAlY load displacement curves at 350 ° C (red), 500 ° C (green), and 600 ° C (purple). The low discreteness and conventional shape of these curves indicate the high stability of Hysitron TI Premier nanoindentation at high temperatures.
