Abstract

The stress in the substrate of a thin film/substrate structure consists of two portions: one is due to the difference of the thermal expansion coefficients of substrate material and films, and the other is due to the discontinuity of thin films. The stress in the oxidized thin film is estimated to be in the order of 109 dyne/cm2. Overall, a powerful means to understand stress-related aspects in microelectronic materials, such as film/substrate structures is provided.
