Abstract

Results from indentation load relaxation (ILR) tests on thin film-substrate systems are reported. In the case of a 1 pum aluminum film on silicon, the data can be interpreted as reflecting both the properties of the film and the interface between film and substrate. Data from a 37μm TiN film on 304 SS are believed to reflect the combined behavior of the film and substrate.
