Buckle depression as a signature of Young's modulus mismatch between a film and its substrate
The buckling structures of rigid films on soft substrates exhibit a "mexican hat" shape characterized by a nanometer scale depression at both edges. Based on finite elements simulations, a mathematical formulation is proposed to extract the elastic modulus mismatch between the film and its substrate, from the fine characterization of the buckle morphology.
