Plasma-assisted Manufacturing
In the context of plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition, stress refers to the internal forces within a material that arise during the film deposition process. This internal force can significantly affect the mechanical properties of the deposited films, including their stability and adherence to substrates. Understanding stress is crucial as it influences film performance, reliability, and longevity in various applications.
