Abstract

Extended x-ray absorption fine structure performed at the Ge-K edge has determined the Ge-Ge and Ge-Si bond lengths in a series of crystalline-Gel-x alloys (x [greater than/less than] 0.5) to be compositional dependent. This high-precision measurement was made possible by utilizing the experimentally determined Ge-Si atomic phase shift from the isoeletronic compounds A1As and GaP. Strain and departures from Vegard's law are also considered.
