Strained Layer Structures

Strained Layer Structure is a semiconductor heteroepitaxial layer system in which a thin crystalline film is grown lattice-mismatched to the underlying substrate, resulting in controlled elastic strain that modifies the electronic and optical properties of the material for enhanced performance in laser diode applications.
