Figure 6. Validation of the phase diagram with reported experimental data.

The previous studies on growth/swelling induced surface instabilities for film-substrate structures with (A) high adhesion energies that prevent delamination and (B) moderate adhesion energies that permit delamination. The numbers in the colored domains denote the reference number. The two-dimensional phase diagram in (B) is achieved by stacking the three-dimensional phase diagram in the region of ε_M = 0.1 − 0.4.
