Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for inhibiting significant oxidation of a film on a substrate during heating of the substrate. The method includes providing a metal or metal oxide film on a substrate and providing a material adjacent to the film. The substrate is then heated to a temperature sufficient to cause the substrate to bend and the material adjacent to the film reacts in such a way as to protect the metal or metal oxide film on the substrate from further significantly oxidizing.
