In digital circuits, materials with low permittivity separate the conducting parts from one another; materials with lower permittivity provide better electrical and magnetic insulation. Continuous reduction in scale drives the optimization problem of lowering the permittivity of the insulator as much as possible, without compromising mechanical integrity, as quantified by the Young’s modulus. ...

Although optical coatings are designed for the control of light (anti-reflective, reflective, splitting, filtering, etc.) it is their mechanical properties which govern longevity. Scratches at any scale lead to excessive absorption of laser energy causing localized thermal stress and ultimate failure. This session is a live demonstration of dynamic nanoindentation with the KLA iMicro nanoindent...
