| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Multilayer thin films were produced to have a core layer of ultrafine crystals sandwiched by nano-crystalline surface layers, where the surface layers improve the resistance to crack nucleation resistance and the core layer blocks crack propagation. The fatigue strength was improved by nano-crystalline surface layers, unless no inter-layer separation did not take place. Intermediate layers will be required to achieve high resistance against fatigue. Various notched specimens made of nanocrystals were produced by UV-LIGA process. The reduction of fatigue strength due to notches was predicted by the point stress model. Nano-crystallization can improve the fatigue strength of notched samples, while, at the same time, increases the notch sensitivity. Nano-crystalline samples are very much sensitive to micro defects. Bulk samples with millimeter thickness produced by long-period electrodeposition will be useful for further detailed investigations of fatigue mechanisms of nano-crystals.
