Compilation of pillar nanocompression experiments of varying materials: single crystal diamond [120], pyrolytic graphite (PyC) [118,119], nanocrystalline nickel (nc-NI) [122], nanocrystalline gold (nc-Au) [121], FEBID Au-C pillar (this work), and an FIB carbon cube of amorphous hydrogenated carbon [41]. The crosses signify the appearance of cracks or catastrophic fracture. Note the ductility of all pillars in contrast to the stiff and brittle diamond pillars.
