Abstract
The importance of mechanical properties of thin films has been established over the past several decades. In the first place, many properties are substantially modified in a condensed flm. The literature contains many examples (1) illustrating shifts in band-gap in semiconductors, transition temperature for super-conducting films, or expected magnetic anisotropy. Any property which itself is strain sensitive, may well be modified in a deposited film. Even a property which is originally isotropic may have lower symmetry when the effects of the strain are considered. The control of the stresses by changing deposition conditions is one of the goals now partially reached in the search to develop new properties.
