Zhang, L.Basak, A.2018-05-292018-05-292013Philosophical Magazine Letters: structure and properties of condensed matter, 2013; 93(8):448-4560950-08391362-3036http://hdl.handle.net/2440/112426This paper establishes the first quantitative relationship between the phases transformed in silicon and the shape characteristics of nanoindentation curves. Based on an integrated analysis using TEM and unit cell properties of phases, the volumes of the phases emerged in a nanoindentation are formulated as a function of pop-out size and depth of nanoindentation impression. This simple formula enables a fast, accurate and quantitative prediction of the phases in a nanoindentation cycle, which has been impossible before.en© 2013 Taylor & FrancisPhase transformation; silicon; quantitative prediction; nanoindentationQuantitative prediction of phase transformations in silicon during nanoindentationJournal article003004881010.1080/09500839.2013.7984410003278406000022-s2.0-84882455981251885Basak, A.
