摘要：
Lattice deformation in an island of Ge grown on a Si(001) surface is visualized by using Fourier transform mapping (FTM) of the transmission electron micrograph. The deformation images show not only strains normal to the Ge/Si interface but also strains parallel to the interface, as has been expected in Stranski-Krastanov growth. In addition, compression caused by the tilt of the lattice is found at the edges of the island. The compression is larger than the theoretical results calculated using a model that supposed the formation of a pure Ge island on Si substrate. This result suggests that interfacial mixing is caused by large stress at the island edges. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
