The formation and electronic structure of semiconductor superlattices is treated at an elementary level. Structural characterization by X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering is discussed on the example of strained-layer Si/Ge superlattices grown onto Si(001). Possible opto-electronic applications are outlined.
