Gradual relaxation of elastic deformations in a silicon layer at the growth of a covering layer on strained layers was established. The dependence of the thickness of a silicon film, where full elastic strain relaxation occurs, on the germanium layer thickness was determined. The dependence of the critical thickness of 2D–3D transition of temperature and composition of the GeSiSn film on Si(100) was...
