Abstract:Recently, the instrumented ultramicrotome, which can measure the cutting force required to shave off a thin film for TEM observation with ultramicrotomy, has been developed. In this study, the cutting force of various metals was measured with the in strumented ultramicrotome to reveal their mechanical properties which the measured cutting force reflects. A pure Pb, Al, Zn and Cu were used as specimens. The measured cutting force tended to have a little relationship with Vickers hardness of the speci mens. Espe… Show more
