  • PREFACE

    This volume contains papers from Symposium V, "Thin Films—Stresses and MechanicalProperties VIII," held November 29-December 3 at the 1999 MRS Fall Meeting in Boston,Massachusetts, and represents contributions from researchers in experimentation, modeling,and technique development.

    An understanding of mechanical behavior is crucial for a wide variety of thin filmtechnologies, such as semiconductor devices and packaging (including advanced interconnects,dielectrics and silicides), information storage media, hard coatings, MicroElectroMechanicalSystems (MEMS), and biomedical devices. The influence of mechanical behavior is seen in thinfilm performance and reliability as well as morphology development during processing andservice. The increased need for understanding of these properties has challenged modernmaterials science because concepts, models and techniques developed for bulk materials oftendo not apply in small dimensions. In particular, the development of new techniques forexploring mechanical behavior on small length scales is essential for further progress in thisarea. This series, of which this is the eighth symposium, addresses key issues in the still growingfield of thin film mechanical behavior.
