In this paper, high-strained germanium on silicon samples with up to 3.1% uniaxial strain is fabricated and then investigated by Raman spectroscopy.
Abstract
Highly strained germanium on silicon samples with up to 3.1% uniaxial strain are fabricated and then investigated by Raman spectroscopy. During optical pumping, changes in both the emission wavelength and output power are observed, indicating that bandgap modification and optical gain are occurring.
