J. Manca et al., IN-SITU FAILURE-DETECTION IN THICK-FILM MULTILAYER SYSTEMS, Quality and reliability engineering international, 11(4), 1995, pp. 307-311
By means of in situ e.m.f.-measurements, leakage current measurements
and impedance spectroscopy, it has been possible for the first time to
detect spontaneous and forced blistering in thick film multilayers du
ring formation at high temperatures. Also the occurrence of high tempe
rature shorts in Ag-dielectric-Ag multilayers under DC-bias was detect
able.
