与现代传播电子显微镜学(TEM ) 和奉献功能的 TEM 标本持有者的开发的进步,人们现在能与纳米范围精确操作一个 nano 目标并且同时和原子规模的结构的信息获得机械数据。这先进方法论在 nanomechanics 正在起一个日益重要的作用。现在的评论总结相关研究在上在里面在过去的十年的各种各样的 nanomaterials 的机械性质的 situ 调查。这些工作在 nanomaterials 上充实我们的知识不仅(例如碳 nanotubes,碳洋葱,硼氮化物 nanotubes,硅 nanowires 和 graphene,等等) 而且在在 nanoscale 的力学上。
With the progress of modern transmission elec- tron microscopy (TEM) and development of dedicated func- tional TEM specimen holders, people can now manipulate a nano-object with nanometer-range precision and simulta- neously acquire mechanical data together with atomic-scale structural information. This advanced methodology is play- ing an increasingly important role in nanomechanics. The present review summarizes relevant studies on the in situ in- vestigation of mechanical properties of various nanomateri- als over the past decades. These works enrich our knowledge not only on nanomaterials (such as carbon nanotubes, car- bon onions, boron nitride nanotubes, silicon nanowires and graphene, etc.) but also on mechanics at the nanoscate.
