Additional information

This paper demonstrated that highly tensile strained silicon could remain strained for layers far thicker than the expected critical thickness for relaxation. The work enabled the NanoSilicon group to better understand relaxation processes in tensile, as opposed to compressive, strained materials and has underpinned a large body of future work based on relaxation under tensile strain e.g. APL 97, 162104 (2010) and including EPSRC projects Renaissance Ge (EP/F031408/1), UK Silicon Photonics (EP/E065317/1), and an EPSRC Platform Grant (EP/J001074/1).
