The possibility to obtain a heterosystem consisting of the upper partially strained and lower relaxed layers by gradient in situ doping of SiGe layers with carbon is considered. The properties of the as-grown and annealed (600 to 1000℃) samples have been studied by Raman spectroscopy and atomic forc...
