Abstract

This work presents fretting and surface reactivity studies of gas phase sputtered nanocrystalline Pd, Pd₉₀Y₁₀ and Pd₆₀Ag₄₀ films deposited on metallic substrates. The thermal stability as well as the surface reactivity of the films to organic vapor were also investigated. The surfaces of the contact regions were examined using scanning electron microscopy and Secondary Ions Mass Spectroscopy. Surface reactivity was studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. This study reveals that nanostructured films have a significant technological potential in the improvement of low current electrical connections.
