Synopsis

Explore how engineers measure the tensile properties of thin films with precision tooling and real‑world applications.

This volume gathers five technical papers that describe techniques for testing thin films, including the drawings of the mechanical parts and the setup used. It explains the components, instrumentation, and test programs needed to study micro-scale mechanical behavior in the context of the electronics industry. The edition highlights how small, freestanding thin films are prepared, mounted, and loaded to reveal their strength and ductility challenges in microelectronics devices.

  • Details on a microtensile testing approach, including specimen design and positioning
  • Noncontacting eddy-current sensors that measure both displacement and force
  • Closed-loop control enabling varied test programs and precise loading
  • Practical notes on the hardware, from piezoelectric actuators to the required computer and parts

Ideal for readers of materials reliability and microelectronics packaging, who want concrete methods and equipment layouts for work at the micrometer scale.
