Mechanics of Compliant Nanoporous Gold

Compliant nanoporous gold is investigated with regards to its elastic modulus and deformation mechanisms. Samples are fabricated by dealloying AgAu alloys at elevated temperature and reduced dealloying potential compared with conventional methods in the literature. This procedure minimizes cracking...
