摘要
Thin films of tantalum, molybdenum, palladium and aluminium deposited on silicon are studied by means of atomic force microscopy. The morphology and the grain size, as well as the fractal dimension, of the thin films are deduced and compared with intrinsic stress experimental data on the same films. A correlation is found between the surface morphology, the growth mode, the fractal dimension and the intrinsic residual stress of the films.
