A microscopic view on acoustomigration.

Abstract:

Stress-induced material transport in surface acoustic wave devices, so-called acoustomigration, is a prominent failure mechanism, especially in high-power applications. We used scanning probe microscopy techniques to study acoustomigration of metal structures in-situ, i.e., during the high-power loading of the device. Scanning acoustic force microscopy (SAFM) allows for the simultaneous measurement of the acoustic wavefield and the topography with submicron lateral resolution. High-resolution...
