Uniaxial and tensile strained germanium nanomembranes in rolled-up geometry by polarized Raman scattering spectroscopy
We present a rolled-up approach to form Ge microtubes and their array by rolling-up hybrid Ge/Cr nanomembranes, which is driven by the built-in stress in the deposited Cr layer.

description | We present a rolled-up approach to form Ge microtubes and their array by rolling-up hybrid Ge/Cr nanomembranes, which is driven by the built-in stress in the deposited Cr layer. The study of Raman intensity as a function of the angle between the crystal-axis and the polarization-direction of the scattered light, i.e., polarized Raman measurement reveals that the strain state in Ge tube is uniaxial and tensile, and can reach a maximal value 1.0%. Both experimental observations and theoretical calculations suggest that the uniaxial-tensile strain residual in the rolled-up Ge tubes correlates with their tube diameters, which can be tuned by the thicknesses of the Cr layers deposited. Using the polarized Raman scattering spectroscopy, our study provides a comprehensive analysis of the strain state and evolution in self-rolled-up nano/micro-tubes. |
