Abstract

Abstract : Inside Front Cover In article number 2101084, Wheeler and co‐workers demonstrate a direct method for correlating compositional and mechanical datasets from high‐speed nanoindentation and EDX maps. They demonstrate this method combinatorially on a Ni–Ta diffusion couple, which includes five intermetallic phases with varying properties. This method yields paired compositional and mechanical data from any microstructural cross‐section, independent of spatial distribution and morphology.
