MECHANICAL-PROPERTY TESTING METHOD AND MEASUREMENT DEVICE

摘要

Provided is a technology for evaluating, in the nano-domain, mechanical stimulus response properties when an indenter having a known shape and known mechanical properties and the surface of a test body of an unknown sample are brought into contact with each other. In a mechanical-property testing method according to the present invention, in a state where an indenter is pressed into contact with the surface of a test body of a measurement sample, a change in the shape of the face of the indenter on the reverse side of the test body side is measured to evaluate the mechanical properties of the measurement sample. Furthermore, a mechanical-property measurement device according to the present invention includes: an indenter that is pressed into a test body of a measurement sample; and a measurement means that measures a change in the shape of the face of the indenter on the reverse side of the test body side.
