Abstract

Using photoreflectance spectroscopy, fifteen electronic transitions have been measured from a 60 period Si8Ge32 superlattice grown on a Si0.2Ge0.8 buffer layer on 〈100〉 Si. The superlattice transitions fit well to a third derivative functional form and most of their energies were determined using a one band envelope-function model, including strain effects. The temperature dependences of the E0 transition in bulk Ge and in the Si8Ge32 superlattice were also fit to a nonlinear functional form.
