Abstract The flexible and clinging nature of ultra-thin films require the understanding of their elastic and adhesive
properties in a wide range of circumstances from fabrications to applications. Simultaneously measuring
both properties, however, is extremely difficult as the film thickness diminishes to nanoscales. In this talk, I
will show our recent work that addresses such difficulties through peeling by vertically pulling thin films off
from the substrates (we thus refer to it as “pull-to-peel”). Particularly, we perform in-situ pull-to-peel of
graphene and MoS2 films in a scanning electron microscope and achieve simultaneous determination of
their Young’s moduli and adhesions to gold… More >
