Phase Transformation in Ultra-Thin Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

Thickness dependent structural phase transformation in thin polycrystalline metal films has been reviewed. Various effects of film thickness reduction on film microstructure have been identified. Film thickness dependent structural phase transformation has been treated thermodynamically taking polycrystalline titanium (Ti) thin film as model example.
