Sintering of glass films on rigid substrates studied by optical techniques

The densification and shear viscosity of borosilicate glass (BSG) + silica films on rigid substrates were studied. Optical measurement techniques were devised to determine the shrinkage profiles of the free and constrained films and in-plane stress in the constrained films. These films were prepared...
