The FESEM pllane view image of a wedge indeentation im mpression is used to d determine thhe curvature of a delam mination craack front. The T followinng approach hes have b been appliedd. First, a trransparent grid g paper is used to obbtain the cooordinates along a the f front of the delaminatioon crack (byy defining the t origin of the coordiinates at thee middle o the wedgge indentatioon impressiion); then a commerciaal software (Origin Pro of o 7.5) is u used to fit thhe delaminaation crack front with a ninth-ordeer polynomiial function n, f(x), as s shown in Fig.4.14. Thhe curvaturee of interfaccial crack front, f κ, forr different BD B film t thickness caan then be determined d u using Eq.(4.9) and the function f(xx) as κ= * f ''( x) ⎡1 + ( f '( x) )2 ⎤ ⎦ ⎣ 3/ .

A nintho order polynnomial funcction is fittted to the crack fronnt in orderr to determ mine the c curvature off the crack front f [2].

To determine the curvatuure of the delaminatiion crack ffront, at leeast five m measuremen nts are madde for eachh BD film thickness (100nm, 3000nm, 500n nm, and 1000nm). Fig.4.15 show ws the relattionship bettween the cuurvature off crack frontt and the f film thickneess. As cann be seen in i Fig.4.16((a), for a BD B film ≤ 100 nm th hick, the i interfacial c crack front is very straaight and th he curvature is closed to zero (Fiig.4.15); t suggestts that the critical this c buckkling stress should folloow the straight-sided buckling b m mode, and the plane strain conddition is fu ulfilled. In contrast, w when the BD B film t thickness is increased to t about 5000 nm or morre (Fig.4.166(c) and 4.16(d)), the cu urvature r reaches a pllateau at abbout 0.51 µm m-1 (Fig.4.1 15), and thee delaminatiion shape iss almost c circular; thuus the circullar bucklingg mode should be adoppted. For thhe 300 nm th hick BD f film, the craack front is slightly cuurved (Fig.4 4.16(b)); hennce the critical bucklin ng stress 91 .
