Ge layers were grown on Si(100) or Si(110) substrates using a two-step growth method. Various bridge structures were then fabricated by photolithography and etching. Using these bridge structures, the effects of different directions of tensile strain and uniaxial or diaxial tensile strain on the valence band and core level were evaluated using hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES (BL09XU@SPring-8) to clarify the effects of strain on the binding energy.
