Scaling of the fracture toughness of freestanding metallic thin films with the yield strength
The influence of the yield strength on the fracture toughness of freestanding metallic films with a thickness of ∼150 nm was investigated by bulge testing. For this purpose, gold films prepared by thermal evaporation were tested at room temperature and at 100°C. Additionally, different Au-Ag solid-s...
