Importance of Thin Film Mechanical Properties under Environmental Control

Thin Film Measurements Webinar Series Part 4/4. Presented by Pal-Jen Wei, Ph.D., Applications Scientist, Bruker


In this fourth session of our four-part Thin Film Characterization Webinar Series, viewers learn why, when, and how to use environmental control technology while measuring the nanomechanical properties of thin films under expected (and extreme) operating conditions, improving test and process accuracy.
