Fig. 3. Mechanical properties of 2DP-F films.

Fig. 3

a Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of 2DP-F thin film suspended over a holey substrate. b Tapping mode AFM image of the suspended 2DP-F thin film. c Load versus indentation depth curves of the 2DP-F thin films with varied thicknesses. Inset demonstrated the AFM indentation experiment on a suspended film. d Tapping mode AFM image of suspended 2DP-F film and corresponding line profile before (top) and after (bottom) indentation experiment. e Statistic histogram of the 2D modulus and the 2D stress of 2DP-F thin films, with more than 40 data points measured for each sample condition. f Corresponding Young’s modulus and breaking strength of 2DP-F thin films. The error bars were based on more than 30 data point for each thickness. g Comparisons of many low-k dielectric materials as mapped in the normalized Young’s modulus vs. dielectric constant plot39,4453.
