  • Abstract
    We investigated the crystalline structure of Ge1-x-ySixSny layers epitaxially grown on Ge(001) substrates. The unstrained and compressive strained Ge1-x-ySixSny layers with very flat surface and high crystallinity can be grown. We found that the control of the strain direction is important to form a high quality Ge1-x-ySixSny layer even with small misfit strain.
