A thin film deposited on a substrate can be either in tensile stress or compressive stress; if stress is too large, film may peel away from the surface; implications in reliability. Figure 12.30 The change in wafer deflection may be used to measure the stress in a deposited layer. This is typically measured using a reflected laser beam.
