Abstract

Fracture toughness of Barium Titanate thin film investigated. The deposition of BTO thin film is done with pulsed laser deposition technique. The fracture toughness of BTO thin film determined with an indirect method of micro-indentation [1]. The experimental results are validated with the analytical solution of the surface crack on the anisotropic thin films [2]. The stress intensity factor variation and dependency on the non-homogeneity parameter of the material is shown in the present study.
