Indentation of Multi-Layered Materials Using Spherical Indentation
, 2020 In the field of indentation there is a subset of study that examines indentation of thin films on substrate materials. Early work in this area primarily focused on the properties of the film, neglecting the substrate. However, there are a great many instances where understanding the substrate may be as important if not more important than understanding

Quantifying Electron and Ion Transfers in Contact Electrification with Ionomers
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The concurrent existence of both electron and ion transfers in solid‐ionomer contact electrification is reported. The ion transfer contributes significantly to the process of contact electrification, especially at high humidity, although only less than 2% of ions participate in the ion transfer, suggesting that there is room for further performance ...
