The use of Raman spectroscopy with high spatial resolution shows that the surface areas with different 3D structures have different Ge contents from about 0.04–0.10. The Si substrate under the SiGe surface layers is weakly strained, while the substrate areas around SiGe island edges display a relatively strong compression.

The Kelvin force microscopy (KFM) data reveal that the surface potential was maximal and, hence, the Ge content was minimal in the terrace areas located near 3D SiGe structures, indicating the presence of the solid-state dewetting effect.
