The temper softening behavior of Fe-C binary martensite with various carbon contents was considered by evaluating the matrix strength through nanoindentation. The tempering temperature dependence of conventional micro-Vickers hardness shows a hump around 673 K, while the matrix strength obtained by nanoindentation simply decreases with tempering temperature.
