Islands stretch test for measuring the interfacial fracture energy between a hard film and a soft substrate
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2013)We present a technique for measuring the interfacial fracture energy, \(\Gamma_i\), between a hard thin film and a soft substrate. A periodic array of hard thin islands is fabricated on a soft substrate, which is then ...
