Abstract

AbstractThe present authors recently introduced the mechanical deflection of cantilever microbeams as an experimental technique for measuring the strength and stiffness of thin films.[1] The technique utilizes conventional integrated circuit (IC) fabrication to process the samples, a Nanoindenter to deflect the cantilever beams mechanically, and simple elastic beam theory to analyze the data. This paper will review the technique and describe some of its current applications.
