Abstract
Due to anisotropic swelling of mixed SiO/SiO2 films induced by water adsorp tion, geometrically regular film buckling from the substrate was observed i n the form of linear spatially periodical structures with longitudinal orie ntation. The mechanical stresses in these films and geometry of the formed structures were studied. A mechanism was proposed to describe the observed deformation effect.
