This study investigates the stress-induced effects during the formation of Ni-InGaAs, with a focus on the impact of compressive and tensile strains on material properties. Supervisor Prof. Shadi A. Dayeh guides the research towards understanding Ni-based alloys, particularly the behavior of Ni4InGaAs2 and In0.53Ga0.47As. The implications are critical for silicon nanowire FET applications under uniaxial tensile strain. The research builds on existing literature examining lateral diffusion in Ni-GaAs couples using advanced transmission electron microscopy techniques.
