Abstract The effects of grain size and holding load on creep properties of
polycrystalline Cu thin films were
investigated using nanoindentation instrument. The results show that
when grain size of polycrystalline Cu thin
films is between 200 nm to 1500 nm, the stress exponent is insensitive
to grain size. However, when the grain size
is reduced below 200 nm, the stress exponents increases with decreasing
grain size, implying that there is a critical
grain size for stress exponents in nanoindentation tests. The stress
exponent also increases with the increase of
holding load. The above phenomena result from more grains to be involved
and the creep rate decrease due to dislocation strengthening the
plastic zone under the indenter tip.
