The formation of dislocation-free three-dimensional island by heteroepitaxial growth of lattice-mismatched materials is used to produce quantum dots. The equilibrium shape of these islands results from the competition between surface and elastic energies. The system Ge/Si has been studied in detail. The elastic relaxation energy of the islands has been calculated within a continuum elasticity theory...
