Abstract
The microhardness of thin molybdenum films deposited on monocrystallin e Si substrates was measured using a simple method of the extrapolatio n to a very thick layer. The results obtained give a relatively high v alue for the film hardness. We attempt to explain this by structural c hanges which occur in the course of the complicated growth of the film s.
