Abstract
The valence band offsets in Si/Si1-yGey/Si strained-layer heterostruct ures with 0 < y < 0.14 have been determined by CV measurements and fro m the analysis of Kroemer. Good agreement is obtained with theoretical predictions of values in the range 0 to 0.1 eV. Extracted interface c harge densities are consistent with values deduced from parallel trans port measurements in 2DHG structures.
