In-plane anisotropy and twin boundary effects in vanadium nitride under nanoindentation
Abstract Twin boundaries (TBs) have been observed in and introduced into nonmetallic materials in recent years, which brought new concepts for the design of new structural materials. However, the roles of TB on the mechanical properties and strengthening/softening of transition metal nitrides remain...
