Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has a long tradition of representing current topics in thin-film properties and how they are related to the performance and reliability of thin-film structures. Several emerging and well-developed technologies rely on understanding the behavior of these structures. This book provides a forum for an exchange of ideas among researchers who are interested in the mechanical behavior of thin films, broadly applied to their materials choice or methodology. The book focuses on stress-related phenomena in thin films for a wide range of materials. Of particular interest are studies that explore the frontiers of thin-film materials science with regard to materials selection or size scale. Topics include: elasticity in thin films; characterizing thin films by nanoindentation; mechanical behavior of nanostructured films; mechanical properties of thin; thin-film plasticity; thin-film plasticity; thin-film plasticity; novel testing techniques; in situ characterization techniques; adhesion and fracture of thin films; fatigue and stress in interconnect and metallization; deformation, growth and microstructure in thin films and thin-film processing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatise on Materials Science and Technology, Volume 24: Preparation and Properties of Thin Films covers the progress made in the preparation of thin films and the corresponding study of their properties. The book discusses the preparation and property correlations in thin film; the variation of microstructure of thin films; and the molecular beam epitaxy of superlattices in thin film. The text also describes the epitaxial growth of silicon structures (thermal-, laser-, and electron-beam-induced); the characterization of grain boundaries in bicrystalline thin films; and the mechanical properties of thin films on substrates. The ion beam modification of thin film; the use of thin alloy films for metallization in microelectronic devices; and the fabrication and physical properties of ultrasmall structures are also encompassed. Materials scientists and materials engineers will find the book invaluable.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been shown that the mechanical properties of thin films tend to differ from their bulk counterparts. Specifically, the bulge and microtensile testing of thin films used in MEMS have revealed that these films demonstrate an inverse relationship between thickness and strength. A film dimension is not a material property, but it evidently does affect the mechanical performance of materials at very small thicknesses. A hypothetical explanation for this phenomenon is that as the thickness dimension of the film decreases, it is statistically less likely that imperfections exist in the material. It would require a very small thickness (or volume) to limit imperfections in a material, which is why this phenomenon is seen in films with thicknesses on the order of 100 nm to a few microns. Another hypothesized explanation is that the surface tension that exists in bulk material also exists in thin films but has a greater impact at such a small scale. The goal of this research is to identify a theoretical prediction of the strength of thin films based on its microstructural properties such as grain size and film thickness. This would minimize the need for expensive and complicated tests such as the bulge and microtensile tests. In this research, data was collected from the bulge and microtensile testing of copper, aluminum, gold, and polysilicon free-standing thin films. Statistical testing of this data revealed a definitive inverse relationship between thickness and strength, as well as between grain size and strength, as expected. However, due to a lack of a standardized method for either test, there were significant variations in the data. This research compares and analyzes the methods used by other researchers to develop a suggested set of instructions for a standardized bulge test and standardized microtensile test. The most important parameters to be controlled in each test were found to be strain rate, temperature, film deposition method, film length, and strain measurement.

This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the mechanical behavior of thin films is crucial for a wide variety of technologies. This behavior can critically influence the design, performance and reliability of thin-film structures used in every area of thin-film technology. However, the performance of these devices is often limited by the mechanical properties of both the films and the structures to which they are attached. The concepts, models and techniques developed for bulk materials often do not apply to small dimensions, and the mechanisms controlling behavior are not well defined. This book, first published in 2004, brings together an international group of researchers and students from industry, academia and national laboratories to address the mechanical behavior of thin films. Of particular interest are those studies that cut across length scales such as atomistic-to-nanometer or nanometer-to-submicron scale. Topics include: stress evolution; modeling stresses and film instability; deformation and adhesion; film fracture and fatigue; processing and structure; indentation testing; mechanical properties; properties and performance; and multilayers and nanolaminates.

Download or read book Thin Films Stresses and Mechanical Properties III Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings Held in Boston Massachusetts on December 2 5 1991 written by William D. Nix and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume consists of eight parts. Papers based on both oral and poster presentations are arranged according to these eight topics. The book begins with papers dealing with microstructural processes and intrinsic stresses in thin films. This is followed by papers on the stresses themselves and on thin film deformation processes. Mechanical testing techniques and the mechanical properties of thin films are presented next. Because indentation has become so important in the study of thin film mechanical properties, a special part of the symposium was devoted to modelling and experiments in indentation. The volume also includes a series of papers on the stresses and mechanical properties of multilayers, focusing mainly on metal multilayers with layer dimensions in the nanometer range. Strain relaxation in heteroepitaxial thin films by the formation of misfit dislocations continues to be one of the important research areas in this field, so a part of this volume is devoted to that topic. The last topics in the volume deal with failure processes in thin films. Papers on adhesion and fracture properties of thin films are grouped together in part VII. The last part of the book deals with the phenomena of electromigration and stress induced voiding in interconnect metal films.
