Abstract
The focus in this project is put on the mechanical property of nano-components (nano-elements). The deformation property of a thin film consisting discretely arrayed nano-elements on a substrate is evaluated by means of an atomic force microscope (AFM) with a loading apparatus. The fact that the thin film eliminates stress singular field at the interface edge between dissimilar materials is numerically and experimentally elucidated.
