The induction of high tensile strain is predicted to make germanium a direct band gap semiconductor. We present here an experimental study of the dependence of such a tensile stress on the direct optical transitions and the Raman strain-induced shift.

Using germanium-on-insulator (GeOI) substrates, we fabricated micro-membranes amplifying the residual stress of the germanium layer. Laue X-ray diffraction measurements at the BM32 beamline (ESRF) showed the strain reaches 4.9 %. We studied the relationship between the strain measured by XRD and the Raman shift and observed a unexpected nonlinear behaviour.

We finally performed electro-absorption spectroscopy on micro-bridges to determine the energy of its optical transitions, showing that the relation between strain and the energy of these transitions differs significantly from previous models.
