Resumen
Photoreflectance spectroscopy is applied on tensilely strained silicon on insulator (sSOI) thin layers in order to evaluate the biaxial strain effect on the Si direct bandgap. The measured redshift of the E′0 transition (i.e. direct bandgap) with strain (∼-100 meV/%) corresponds to theoretical predictions. The hydrostatic and valence band deformation potential constants for E1 (i.e. transition close to the L point along the Λ-direction) are also measured: D11 =-7.5 ± 0.5 eV and |D33| = 3.8 ± 1 eV.
