CURVATURE

Introduction

Any difference in the thermal expansion between epitaxial films and the associated single-crystal substrate can lead to sample warping. The extent of the induced curvature can be evaluated from X-ray rocking curve mapping data collected using an XY translation stage. Knowledge of the extent of curvature can be used as an indicator of residual stress within the film.
