- Abstract
Cadmium tungstate single crystals are excellent scintillators and have vast potential as γ- and x-ray detectors. However, they are brittle and as a result, are difficult to manufacture. An understanding of deformation and fracture behavior is necessary in order to improve the ability to fabricate these crystals. Thus, this paper explores the deformation and fracture behavior of CdWO4 single crystals using nano- and microindentation techniques.
