摘要
This paper presents the result of a Raman scattering characterization of Si1-x-yGexCy layers. The main conclusion from this research is that the Si-Si bonds in strain-compensated Si1-x-yGexCy layers do not relax back to their pure Si configuration, even when the average lattice constant of the alloy is identical to that of pure Si.
