Abstract
We describe a cell to study the effect of isotropic in-plane stresses on the properties of thin films: the working principle is the uniform inflation of the substrate of the film with a pressurized fluid. In or der to investigate inverse magnetoelastic effects on thin ferromagneti c films, a setup composed of the cell and a magneto-optical ellipsomet er is also described. Preliminary results only electroplated Ni film a re shown. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
