摘要
Thin film composition spreads of Mg-Ni were deposited by co-sputtering on micromachined Si-cantilevers. The investigated compositions range from about Mg(60)Ni(40) to about Mg(80)Ni(20). Structural properties as well as mechanical stress before and after hydrogenation were measured with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and laser profilometry, respectively. The composition spreads were hydrogenated in a special pressure vessel, which allows measuring optically the hydrogen-induced deflection (stress-change) of 16 cantilevers as a function of hydrogen pressure and/or temperature. It was found that the hydrogen-induced stress is correlated with the composition and microstructure of the films. Highest hydrogen-induced stress changes were found for compositions close to the crystalline Mg(2)Ni phase. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
