Abstract
Young's moduli of 3 μm thick NiTi films sputter-deposited on silicon wafers are determined by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy. Three samples with different transition temperatures are studied; for each sample, the evolution of Young's modulus is obtained in a thermal cycle covering the austenite â R-phase â martensite transition sequence. The results prove that the smallest Young's modulus is attained for the R-phase, and both austenite and martensite exhibit pronounced softening towards the transition temperatures.
