Modeling the Mechanical Response of Polycrystalline Thin Films
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are part of every modern technological advance. Electrodeposited thin nickel (Ni) polycrystalline films in MEMS often show fiber texture resulting in transverse isotropic elastic properties. It is of interest to determine these elastic properties, in particular …
