Abstract：In situ nanomechanicsis anemerging field that investigates the mechanical properties and deformationmechanisms of nanostructured materials. The in situ nanomechanics researchistypicallyconductedby integrating thereal-time mechanical testing inside an electron microscope and the mechanicsmodeling with atomic resolution. It provides a powerful approach to visualizethe intrinsic nanomechanical behavior of materials - seeing is believing. Inthis talk, I will present the recentin situ nanomechanics studies in my group, including the electrodedegradationin nanoscale lithium-ion batteries (NatureNanotechnology, 7, 749, 2012);fracture toughness of graphene (NatureCommunications, 5, 3782, 2014);twinning-dominateddeformation in BCC nanowires (NatureMaterials, 14, 594, 2015); andstress-induced solid state amorphization in silicon nanocrystals (Nature Nanotechnology, 11, 866, 2016). I will also present ourongoing work on the nanomechanics of heterogeneous nanostructured high-entropyalloys and 3D-printed steel. The in situ nanomechanicsstudies provide new insights thatcannot be offered by traditional mechanics approaches.Ultimately, the in situ nanomechanics research aims to enable the design ofnanostructured materials to realize their latent mechanical strength to thefull. Our research involves collaborations with Drs.Scott Mao, Jianyu Huang, JunLou, Qian Yu and Morris Wang.
