“…7, where the cross-section of the multi-layer stripe is visible. Next to the large, abnormally grown crystallites, which have been studied in detail in our earlier publications [6,7], even larger, "bubble-like" structures are visible on the surface of the upper platinum thin film. They are presumably due to delamination caused by the difference in the coefficients of thermal expansion between the platinum and the silicon substrate leading to high compressive stress in the Pt layer [8].…”
