Raman study of the strain and H2 preconditioning effect on self-assembled Ge island on Si (001)

An investigation of the microscopic mechanisms of Ge self-assembling island growth is of great importance for future optoelectronic applications of quantum dot nanostructures. In this study, two sets of self-assembled germanium islands on Si (001) substrate, with and without preconditioning using a...
