| Abstract: | The thesis aims to present the results of experimental investigations on the changes of optical properties of metallic thin films due to heating. The parameters which are measured are reflectivity, refractive indices and the ellipsometric quantities V and A . The materials used in the studies are metals like Silver, Aluminium and Copper. By applying the optical method the interdiffusion taking place in multilayer
‘films of Aluminium and Silver has also been studied. Special interest has been taken to reveal the mechanisms of the hillock growth and surface roughness caused by heating and their relation with the stress in the film |
