Abstract The problem of simulation of the stress-strain state in SiGe island heterostructures is considered. The analytic-numerical method of multipole expansions is used to obtain an approximate solution. The problem of the stressed state influence on the diffusion mobility of atoms adsorbed on the heterostructure free surface is also discussed.
Keywords island heterostructures,"quantum dots," multipole expansion method
