11 Preface This volume is a compilation of papers presented at the 1990 Spring Meeting of the Materials Research Society in a symposium entitled "Thin Films: Stresses and Mechanical Properties II". As indicated by the title, the symposium was the second in a series, the first of which was held at the Fall Meeting in Interest in thin film mechanical properties continues to grow. The symposium was attended by a large international audience representing universities, national laboratories and industry who presented basic and applied research results in fields such as semiconductor technology, magnetic recording technology, and hard coating technology. The importance of thin film mechanical properties in these fields is now recognized to the extent that basic characterization techniques such as microindentation and thin film stress measurement are performed routinely, and new characterization techniques are being developed on a daily basis. Many of the papers in the symposium dealt with the developments in these characterization methods and their application to a broad spectrum of materials such as compositionally modulated structures, ion implanted materials, optical coatings, and the numerous metals, ceramics and organics used in semiconductor device manufacture. The editors are encouraged by the rapidly growing interest in thin film mechanical properties. It is hoped that this volume will be useful to newcomers to the field, as well as stimulate new ideas for those who are already familiar with it. Mary F. Doerner Warren C. Oliver George M. Pharr Franz R. Brotzen June 1990
