N2 - We have investigated strain relaxation of strained SiGe layers after mesa isolation with a newly developed Raman method with a high number aperture (NA) lens and an immersion technique. It was confirmed that forbidden optical phonon mode (TO) can be effectively excited with the high-NA (1.4) lens and oil immersion technique, and that the non-destructive, and anisotropic strain measurement was successively realized for the strained-SiGe layers. On the other hand, it was found that the strain was more significantly relax in St-SGOI mesas than in St-SiGe mesas. The result implies that the relaxation mechanism in the strained SiGe/Si layer is different from that in St-SGOI layer.
